Re: XR500 hardware seems identical to R7800
Thanks for your interest in the Nighthawk Pro Gaming XR500. Router. Although the base hardware specs seem similar, there are particulars of the hardware platform that means any sort of "Porting" of the OS from one device to another is not so cut and dry.

Have you tried Voxels FW for the R7800?

Yes, Voxels is using same Web UI and fetures. Only behind the scenes code is being updated and managed.

Re: XR500 hardware seems identical to R7800
Depends if FW has the Cut Thru or HW NAT included. I know the R7800 does. Seen others over on the NW R7800 boards with 1Gb ISP and there getting around 900Mb+ speeds.
Maybe the HW is identical however the FW isn't. Big differences. I would post over on the Standard NighHawk forums for the R7800 as these are two different router models.

Look at my profile tag. I game two xbox consoles at the same time. One of the few routers that can handle multiple game consoles.
