XR700 Keeps Kicking Offline
I have the XR700 Router with the CM1000 Cable Modem. Every time i try and play on Xbox live even just sitting in a party chat i keep getting kicked offline every few minutes. I have tried to factory...
So far I set IPv6 as Enabled with internet Passthrough. It's working at the moment but will update yall as I figure this out, unless anyone else has a solution.
Just to inform everyone; I've read somewhere that the XR500 & XR700 are kicking Xbox users offline. Netgear & MS are working on a fix but the current solution is to TURN OFF 'Instant On' in the Xbox Settings.
Thanks for the reply, My Xbox is and has always had Instan On turned off. The router has and issue with MS IPv6, somehow it is incompatible in some form or another. The IPv6 keeps getting disconnected, and i do not know if it is Netgear's end, Microsoft's end, or both.
Curious; is this problem completely non-existent with IPv6 disabled? Or is it less frequent?
I'm not sure if it's related, but it might be of course. Simplest way of finding out is to disable IPv6 and leave instant mode on. Then see if you get any more drop outs.
