Hey all I just bought the xr500 its pretty cool so far ,But i am having a slight hicup . If i restart my cm1000 the light on the xr500 goes amber even when the modem gets full back up it stays amber . I am wondering if maybe I got a bad xr500 or if its a glitch When i got the webpage for the modem It will not detect my modem till I unplug the router and power it back up.

The router is fine i have discovered the modem cm1000 is failing. I went to setup my nighthawk x6 back up. The x6 would not detect the modem no matter what i tried unplugging it power cycling the modem then the x6 I guess thats why i could not access 192.168.100.1 for the modem through the pro gaming router, I think the lan port on the cm1000 might have a short in it or some kinda random glitch since the lights all light up that lan is connected , on the modem and both routers.

Re: XR500 and cm1000
Some more info I have updated the router to the current firmware. I first noticed it when it did the setup I had problems with the router decting my modem under internet ip address. All the fields were 0 on the off chance of getting a bad cable with the new modem I just switched it out. I am still having probelms when restarting modem the internet never comes back up even after waiting for 15 minutes.

Re: XR500 and cm1000
That maybe down to the router not recognising that your dynamic ip address has changed. Your dynamic ip address changes if your modem roboots itself or manually. I had this happen with my asus router also so I don't think it is a bug or faulty router as once you reboot the router it finds your new ip address and works ok!
You shouldn't be rebooting your modem as that should be left switched on all the time.

Re: XR500 and cm1000
Even though it can seem like a modem/router is fully powered up it can take a few minutes after reboot before you can access properly. I don't see any issues here just normal operation.

New GUI Language Version: | V1.0.0.327 |
I have tried to apply the update but nothing happens. it says please wait while updating The screen will flicker and the dashboard loads back up.

I noticed when my sony is streaming a movie on wifi and my computer is on wifi I can no longer surf webpages at the same time . Currently I have smart connect off so I run the 5ghz band and the 2.4. My tv is on the 5ghz and laptop is on 2.4.This glitch has happened twice for me now.

Re: XR500 and cm1000 update
I can't recall where I read this but I believe all three of those WiFi options shouldn't be enabled at the same time, I'd suggest disabling HT160 and see if that also helps to resolve the issue.

Re: XR500 and cm1000 update
my speeds are 296 up and 13 down . I have turned off ht160 to see if that helps. I have sliders at 70% with them set at 280 since 296 is not constant. I will let you know if it happens again , Its happened twice now randomly

Re: XR500 and cm1000
I was wondering since you have a cm1000 did you have any handshake issues with the modem and router ?

Re: XR500 and cm1000
Nope I have not had any issue with handshake. In fact the set up and overall connection have been excellent so far. I just got the XR500 last weekend and I went ahead did the automatic setup detected and it connected quickly. Firmware updated just like it was supposed to on first connection which I was glad to see! Then I went in tweaked everything and I have had no connection drops or other issues so far. The only thing I did notice was that all the ports report as stealth except port 22 for remote which reports closed which I know is not a security risk but would be nice if it was stealth.

I had to keep rebooting my modem and router for it to detect my cm1000.
