Rebooting XR500 will not connect to internet
Any suggestions or links anyone knows of to help would be appreciated. I tried calling, not realizing that 1 yr manufacturers warranties are helpful unless you pay a premium. I have yet found a solution online (netgear forums or web links) that have helped.

Re: Rebooting XR500 will not connect to internet
Hey,
Could you explain this a little further? Do you mean that you will not have an internet connection over these devices when the router comes back up again?
If there were any other issues you experienced that caused you to give up on DumaOS, just let us know and we'd be happy to help.

Re: Rebooting XR500 will not connect to internet
DumaOS issue, I finally found settings that worked well with my area for server connections while gaming. Then I started having problems with my Ring devices not staying connected or my app not being able to connect and see a camera. Disable Duma no consistent problems with Ring. Also adjusting priority or bandwidth induces lag on my gaming pc.
The router is setup for Auto Connect between 2.4/5. I have previously tried separating the bands but saw no change in device performance.

Re: Rebooting XR500 will not connect to internet
Unplug power to both modem and router.
Disconnect Ethernet on LAN port 1&2.
Plug in modem, wait for led to turn to appropriate colors to signify service has been established.
Wait an additional 2-3 minutes
Plug in router to power await internet to flow through the gateway, test on cell phone to see it working.
Plug in Lan 1&2. (If I were to leave LAN 1&2 plugged in during this reboot process end result is no internet. This is flawed to me, if power goes out and system reboots upon power restored I will have no internet till I reboot with above listed sequence.). I did a test one day with the lab port and rebooting, I disconnected my two ethernet cables and then connected and unused cat 6 cable to the router on port 1 and then again on port 4. With this cat 6 cable connected to the router and nothing else I still had the same result with rebooting which was not active internet from the router. The modem was good but the router failed to see internet. Maybe I have a compatibility with my Arris SB6190, but as many networks as I have hooked up over the years I have not experienced this before. First time for everything in tech though.
I will test the DumaOS later, at this time it is not paramount to me. I would rather solve the rebooting and device dropping from WiFi randomly first. I am not home most of the week and with online schooling happening at the home I need the network to not be a hassle for my wife (as it was this morning).

Re: Rebooting XR500 will not connect to internet
Excluding the fact they're wired, do the connect devices have anything else in common?
Are they both using static IPs or using DHCP?

Have you tried assigning them a static IP and seeing if this helps matters?

Re: Rebooting XR500 will not connect to internet
If you attempt a reboot with devices connected via ethernet, do you notice anything in the logs relating to those interfaces?
This might help determine what's causing the issue.
