Re: MTU PS4
In all honesty, unless you have a serioulsy clear reason for changing MTU, I wouldn't change it. Will probably cause more harm than good and any benefits are likely to just be placebo effect:

Far better to focus on getting your QoS and Geo-Filter settings as optimal as possible and find the server region that plays best for you

Re: MTU PS4
For MTU values, ask the ISP for whay they suggest. MTU valules are mostly based on ISP service, Most cable ISPs use 1500, DSL vary between 1472 and 1492.
Also your ISP modem is a gatway router. Having this in front of your XR series router will effect performaces and connections as well. It's not recommended to have two routers on the same line.
Modem Combo Units:
Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge mode. Then use the NG router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ for the IP address the NG router gets from the modem.

Well Mtu 1473 has been proven to uncap speeds, on ps4 I’ve done 2 sets of {5 round tests for both mtu 1500 and 1473, lower mtu in general is proven to lower latency and if it is not actually lowering latency then I am recieving benefit of about 30-60 more download speeds im here to basically understand how to test for optimal mtu if there’s nothing to really test it then nobody really knows does the xr500 support packet fragmentation or does my ISP (Xfinity) or my modem Cisco DPC3941T

Re: MTU PS4
Ok, making sure about your modem.
If that works then use what works best for you.

Re: MTU PS4
Simplest way of testing double NAT is through the console's network test.

Re: MTU PS4
Your ISP model # tells us it's a modem and router built in, so having the XR router connected to it, would cause a double NAT in this configuration. First post suggests a couple of options for working with modem router combo units.
NAT Type 2 for PS consoles means there is a router in between the console and modem, this is normal. Only way to get NAT Type 1 is to directly connect game console to a modem only unit.
