Re: XR300 Not connecting internet through phones
It is on both an Note 20 Ultra and a galaxy s9 and it is both 2.4g and 5g frequency.
It just kicked my laptop off and would not connect to the internet untill I reset the router and it was fine again.

What modem/gateway do you have it connected to?

Re: XR300 Not connecting internet through phones
did you put the ATT device in pass through/ modem only mode?
Otherwise you're in a double nat.

You can also put the XR300 in ap (access point) mode but then you'd loose out on the benefits of the XR300 purpose.

Re: XR300 Not connecting internet through phones
I just switched it off of ap mode yesterday and it seems to work fine now. Thank you.
I have no idea why It would do that?
