Are you saying setup using DHCP DMZ like last time with gateway router and xr500 setup through the lan port on it? Or do I need to try and get a completely seperate router/switch for this?
I can see you've got AdblockPlus enabled even in Incognito mode, could you disable this, refresh the page and see if it works correctly after that please?

Does the Connection benchmark use https to get info? I tried using Microsoft Edge to get bufferbloat results on dsl reports and https speedtest didn't work at all?
@Totti_10 remove any rules in that panel or disable DumaOS Classified Games. Traffic Prio supersedes QoS to put gaming packets ahead of the network queue which helps limit jitter, spikes etc.
Hey. It not affect upload buffernloat. I use a Speedport Smart 3 as a DSL Modem (Bridge Mode) with my Xr500 Nighthawk newst Firmware. Iam using PPPoE Connection. Eventhing works fine except bufferbloat on upload. Is the only way that i use xr500 with Dhcp with DMZ?
For everyone here in the forum DMZ or Exposed Host connections are a security risk. I would like it better if netgear could fix the problem or is it technically not possible? Will there be an update soon that solves this problem?
@Totti_10 putting the XR in the DMZ of your modem/router is perfectly safe as the XR has its' own built in firewall and so will not pose a security risk to any of your devices.
