Re: xr500 question
For what?
What are you trying to do?
If you're using the modem's (probably a combo device) wifi, you should have put the xr500 into the modem's DMZ if you want to continue to use it.
If that's not what you mean, a little more detail on what you're attempting and what issues you're running into would be beneficial.

Re: xr500 question
I fixed it. I diagnosed the wifi card connected to the pc and it said the dhcp was disabled so windows fixed it itself. If i disable the modem wifi will i get faster wifi speeds with the xr500?

Re: xr500 question
Not necessarily. Just make sure the 2 wifi's are on different channels to prevent interference.
You want to make sure the XR500's IP address is in your router's DMZ. That'll allow you the fastest ping times.
