XR700 issues
So having R App issues not responding, tried flashing the .24 FW with TFTP then doing a hard 60s reset I'm still having issues. Wifi will drop even on a clean channel (not auto) 5ghz range is kinda la...
I didn't know exactly what CPU is in the XR700 so I couldn't check the TJMax. I did think it a bit weird when going into the debug.htm and trying to check the "Always Enable Fan" option - it will NOT turn the fan on and the box will NOT stay checked. All checking that box will do is refresh the debug page. Also like I said before I did turn the fan speed to 4000rpm but I have no way of checking if that's actually going to do anything or not as the fan doesn't turn on. Anyway I cannot wait for this new FW release, I hope it fixes a lot of bugs in the OS and FW as a whole and it becomes the beast I know it to be!
I noticed when my son was downloading Rainbow 6 on Steam this afternoon, his Rx rate was 25MBps. I have the QoS Anti-Bufferbloat set to 50% @ 150Mbps Rx (50% 15Mbps Tx) and GoodPut disabled with the "Apply" radio button as Always. How is it possible for his PC to reach these speeds when it should be throttled at the router level? Also a side note, my son was playing his new 2k21 (basketball game) on the PS4 pro while my other son was downloading this Rainbow 6 and his gameplay was very laggy and he was getting frustrated (as you can imagine a teenager would be). I thought the consoles were to have top priority over PC's?
- What his PC set manually being Prioritized by Traffic Prio at the time and was download being rapidly prioritized? If so that will be why. What are your Traffic Prio settings generally?
