Can't connect Xbox One X (wired) to XR500 router

So I just bought the XR500 router and tried to connect it to my Xbox One X using ethernet cable, but was unable to. I have the lastest firmware (v2.3.2.40) btw. On the Xbox network settings while trying to connect it says, "Nat type: unavailable" "xbox.com/xboxone/Taredo".

I'm able to connect all of my wireless devices to the XR500 router (including the Xbox One X while wireless) but not the Xbox One X while wired. What do I need to tweak on the DumaOS setting to fix this? Ivp6?

 

Also, could it be my IPv4 settings on my xbox one x that are wrong? If so, what numbers should I put?

    What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?

     

    Does the xbox get an IP address from the XR router? Does this happen when wirelessly connected as well?

  • I think you found the problem - the static IP you have put on your Xbox is most likely not correct for your new router. Can you change it back to automatic (dynamic) on your Xbox and see if that fixes your problem.

     

    If not, please let us know your network settings on your Xbox and we can take a look
