I just bought a series X and whenever it is on my entire house's devices slow to a crawl. I had a Xbox One X and did not have this issue. I have 1Gig internet, Orbi RBR850 (AX6000) and have the xbox wired in. It doesn't matter if I have it on wireless or not. This immediately started as soon as I added the series x to my network. Any suggestions would be helpful. I've tried restarting router, xbox, modem etc numerous times and nothing has helped. I haven't seen anyone else have this issue. Thanks in advance.

What Firmware version is currently loaded?What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too? What are you doing with the xbox during this time frame? Gaming or streaming or do you see everything come to a halt or slow down right after you power ON the xbox? Do you have any wired devices that have a LED on the RJ45 jack that gives activity inidication LED?

Thanks for the quick response! Modem is: Arris Surfboard SB8200.It's almost as soon as I turn the Xbox on within 10 minutes the internet just drags to a holt. Speedtests go to the single digits. As soon as I turn it off, I can be in the middle of the speedtest and see the internet just skyrock into the 600's. We see the kids Zoom calls slow to a crawl as well. There is nothing plugged into the router other than the Xbox right now. I have auto updates off as well as any sharing features off.

So Just turning on the xbox and letting it coem to ready causes this right? Wondering if there is a ARP storm happening.Do you have any other wired devices that have a LED on the RJ45 jack that gives activity inidication LED?

So after turning ON the xbox, don't do anything for 10 minutes with the xbox, just let the xbox sit there, you notice everything slows down?

It quickly increases as soon as I start any game at all. Could you help clarify what you mean by "any other wired devices that have a LED on the RJ45 jack that gives activity inidication LED?"
