this issue has not been fixed yet, and guess what? seems like there is no fix at all.

for everyone else having VLAN setup, be careful while cosndering the XR500 for your setup since you will find some main feaures not working properly.

thanks.

A fix takes time, certainly more than 4 days due to testing as well. I don't know the current status as Netgear will be dealing with it, once the new update is released check whether it has been implemented. Can also ask on your ticket for an update

as an update to the issue, which is the QoS and UPNP on VLAN tag setup,

I found a statemnet on Netgear user manual that might be making sense,

on the VLAN tag section they mentioned this statement:

" If you add a VLAN tag group to the bridge, packets sent between the device and the router’s Internet port are not processed through the router’s network address translation (NAT) or firewall"

this might be the reason of the problem, the upstream packets specifically are not controlled by NAT on VLAN bridge. that is why download speed can be controlled by anti-bufferbloat but upload is not.

thanks.

  Thank you I've updated the ticket on our end about this so will see if we can get a fix in place for this for QoS side of things.
