Ive gone through all trouble shooting in manual, factory resets, reboots. Being helped by someone in the other forum but so far no luck.

Re: New - XR450/XR500 v2.3.2.56 Firmware Update Available...
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed after the FW update?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
What is "quos"? >QoS?

Lose time and money,
Re: New - XR450/XR500 v2.3.2.56 Firmware Update Available...
I would contact NG support again and let them know if your experiences with the recent FW update. If NG can't seem to fix this for you then, you might want to ask about a refund.
Good Luck.

if right now I just contacted again as you already had an open case of the RMA, they have escalated the case to engineering that is already the upper level, the manager was not available so I will wait for the call within a few hours, I have little hope of being able to fix it since I'm not the only one with this problem, I don't know what to think it's supposed to be a software issue ... Even so, I expect at least the product reimbursement, since it does not work as it should and there are already many hours invested in trying to solve what a great loss of time and money for a simple router means for me thanks friend i waiting

Apex Legends QOS working well with "When High Priority Traffic Detected" setting. Set up and down Anti-Bufferbloat at 70% and the XR500 detected the game traffic while limiting a speed test I ran at the same time. Red, "High Priority Traffic Detected" light was on the whole time in game with the priority packet counter incrementing as I moved character through the Apex training module. Exited game (and Origin if that matters), ran the speed test, and it was automatically back to 100% without having to change any QOS settings. Red light went out as expected after a short while.

A minor problem popped up after 4+ days of router uptime. My daughter child left the house with her phone about an hour ago but I just noticed it is still shown as online in Device Manager, both the tree view and the table view (even shows signal strength). This is using Chrome. Closed and reopened Chrome and it is still there. Tried IE and it also is still has an online status. Opened up the Nighthawk app on my phone and it is NOT shown to be online. Pretty happy so far with the new firmware. Another revision or two and it should be there. Thanks!
Re: New - XR450/XR500 v2.3.2.56 Firmware Update Available...
Update to the above post. Just went and looked at Device Manager again and watched it drop to "Offline". This was about an hour after the phone left the area.
Re: New - XR450/XR500 v2.3.2.56 Firmware Update Available...
No, didn't do a factory reset and setup from scratch. Have about 10 IP address reservations and didn't want to mess around with getting everything going again. Doesn't seem like this would help though since the Nighthawk app shows online devices correctly. Everything looked to be operating perfectly till I noticed this, mostly cosmetic, problem. Seems more like a DumaOS glitch that takes a while to appear. As long as everything remains solidly working I can live with a tiny issue like this. I will do a complete factory reset and fresh setup when/if another firmware revision comes out.
If you could explain it I'd be interested in just where the Nighthawk app hooks into the router. Is it getting it's info from the DumaOS or the lower Firmware level?
Re: New - XR450/XR500 v2.3.2.56 Firmware Update Available...
A factory reset would be needed to confirm if the issue continues or not. Your currently the only one posting about this. It would be helpful to try this and see.
Re: New - XR450/XR500 v2.3.2.56 Firmware Update Available...
You may be correct in that it's getting from lower firmware level, there definitely needs to be more synergy between the app and interface and we plan on doing that.

Re: New - XR450/XR500 v2.3.2.56 Firmware Update Available...
I just setup my XR450 with v56 today on a 200/10 ISP and speed testing is to spec, via wired PC and NG Nighthawk app on iPhone 6sP and Android Galaxy Tab S2 pad.
QoS set for 70% on both sliders using "When High Priority Traffic is Detected."
Also have 2x EX7700 extenders connected. Smart Connect is enabled on the XR450.
I did find an issue, has to do with the NH app. Device Manager reports "Sorry, the action was failed. Please try again." when seleting this on iPhone. On Android pad reports "Connected devices not found." Both iphone and pad have up to date NH apps.
