XR700 Various Issues
Hello All, As I am now lumped with the XR700 after having it for over a month, I have collated a list of my findings so far regarding a few issues of concern, I am yet to to test the beta firmwar...
1. Logs should only clear if the router is rebooted or reset, does that explain your issue at all? It won't be broadcasting your IP at all, no need to worry about that. I wouldn't worry about log entries in general as it is quite verbose and primarily for the developers or if there is a major issue. DoS attack will pretty much appear for anything you interact with on the internet, e.g. go to Facebook and one will likely appear.
2. If it was fixed then I wouldn't worry about it, potentially a reference to it or something like that causing a flag when the cause has been solved. If you're more concerned with this I would suggest contacting Netgear support.
3. Contact Netgear support regarding that as us (Netduma) are not involved with that area of the router so we wouldn't be the best people to ask regarding this.
4. What do you mean exactly, how are you testing that it is still active? How are you disabling QoS?
5. That might be because of the firmware you are on (which we're aware of) but in most cases that should be resolved by clearing cache and cookies on the browser.

Firmware: V1.0.1.10
Browser: Chrome: 75.0.3770.100
Windows: 10.0.17773
Intel core i9 9900k(stock)
Modem: Netgear CM1000
Signed up on the forum so I can confirm number 5. The sluggishness. I did a factory reset and that process was difficult. I cleared cache / cookies, etc before accessing the web interface for the first time on factory reset and it was pretty bad. The speed test went on longer than 10 minutes and I had to start again by reloading the page. It then detected the correct download and upload and I moved on. That froze up after several minutes and I continued this pattern for quite awhile. Reloading and resuming. Sometimes the steps went through. Sometimes the pages wouldn't finish loading.
Just wanted to add another confirmation on post factory reset configuration issues of the current firmware. I've never ran anything before this firmware so I have nothing else to compare to. In general, pages are slow to load, but the factory reset is something that will definitely scare someone.
- That's very strange because I've not really heard anything like that, it's always been quite stable. I have asked Christian_R to add you to the beta forum so you can try the newest firmware there and see if that resolves the issues.
what's always been stable? lol
- The setup wizard has always been rather stable, I’ve not seen issues like this before but try the beta it may perform better.
