Channel 44.
Router version XR1000 1.0.0.74_1.0.63

    Leave it off? 

    Ethernet connect the console to the router instead?

      Hi!

      Thanks for the quick response. 

      Now the console can't even connect to the network with WIFI 😞

  • That may or may not be a cause, could be incidental but you've disabled the two features that would help you keep your ping low so I'd suggest using them and see if you get the same issue.

      Hi. 

      Just turned it on: 

      - Geofilter 

      - QOS

      The console does not connect to the network. 

      As soon as I turn OFDMA off everything works fine.

        Are you adjusting the option while the console/game is on? If so reboot the console then check.
