XR700 r-apps not loading
Hi Guys, Looking for some help on r-apps not loading on the XR700. I see there is a closed thread on this already but does not give me much information. Is anyone able to help on this one? ...
- Hi Nige, what pages is this happening on? In System Information on the R-App panel, change in the options the retries to 5 instead of 3 and then reboot the router.
You'll have to check with the mfrs of your wifi devices to check for DFS support.
Understand. Seen many posts in regards to the XR700 not working as expected. I only tested an XR700 for two weeks then sent it back. So I don't have any experiences to share since then. :smileyembarrassed:
You may want to try v10 FW version as an alternative if you seem to have other problems.
Smart Connect with Beamforming should work well. It does on my XR450 however I presume the radios between the 450 and 700 maybe different chipsets.
I thing setting DHCP reservations are what is keeping this router stable for the moment. As for your tuning suggestions though, I AGREE! I went ahead and turned off my extender and reset it. I went back to the XR700 and enabled smart connect and unchecked the "Enable 160 MHz bandwidth in the 5 GHz band" in Advanced Wireless settings. I also switched my 5GHz to a non-DFS channel and then turned on Smart Connect.
I then went back to the Extender and reconnected it through the WPS button on it and the WPS button on the XR700. I enabled Smart Connect on it too. I also unchecked "Enable 20/40 MHz Coexistence" on the Extender as well as the XR700. I then noticed the signal strenth of the XR700 as reported by the Extender is MUCH GREATER THAN BEFORE!

I'll see how this works after a while. THANKS FURRYe38!
