Re: xr500 xbox disconected

Hi crj83, is the Xbox connected wireless or wired? It sounds like an issue with the Xbox honestly considering every other device is fine including another Xbox. If wired try wireless does it have the same issue? If wireless try wired, does it have the same issue?

Have you set on the console itself to have automatic network settings?

I have two Xbox Ones hard wired with no issues. Have you rebooted the Xbox's since setting the router up? Rebooting the Xbox's will refresh there network settings.

The  only thing i am have the problem with is the wired xbox everthing else is wireless. I fine it very strange that the only wired device is the one causing the problem

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

It is likely the ethernet cable itself (try another if you have one). It could be the ethernet port on the Xbox also. If you connect wirelessly only that Xbox has the issue been resolved?

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

Thanks for the advice but i highly doubt it as it only started to happen when i upgraded to this router. I don't get disconeted when playing it's only when the xbox is off over night

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

Try:
Different ethernet cable
Connecting via WiFi
If the Xbox is using Instant On, disable that and see if it continues

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

Can you see if that fixes the issue please. If it does then it indicates Instant On isn't connecting with the router from sleep for some reason.

That's what I want to double check, then we can get the Devs involved to see why that's occurring.

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

Hi Kirill, could you make a new topic for your issue please as these two issues are unrelated.

Also just quickly it depends on what game you're playing and where their servers are located, you may need to expand your radius to encompass more of Europe.

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

Yes wired is preferred for gaming. Are you running an Xbox Insider build?

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

It's something you sign up for. Since you don't know, more than likely you're not on an insider build. I was curious if it needed to reported as a bug or not.

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

Great thanks for letting us know that it resolved your issue. It could be related to the power mode but could be related to Xbox Insider as well, every time I used it I had crazy bugs

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

This sounds like the same issue we have had with the R7800 since the beginning. Maybe now that NG is advertising this as a "pro" gaming router, they will finally deal with it. I assume many customers will continue to encounter the problem. The issue seems to be tied to the Instant On mode on the xbox. If you look at the router's LAN lights, you'll see that the xbox alternates frequently between 10/100 and gigabit link speeds when it's off using this mode. I beleive the constant switching causes the switch to crash or lock up while wireless continues to work. I moved my xbox to a separate gigabit switch connected into the router and it fixed it for me.

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

Very helpful: I have been on another topic thread about total internet drops. My xr500 router, sometimes multiple times a day but usually once overnight, loses connection with my modem. I have received many tips from this thread & spent countless hours on phone with NG support. I left my Xbox disconnected from xr500, and you guessed it, no internet router drops!
I’ll try the instant on adjustment next. Maybe a 2nd switch. Thx!

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

I have the same issue, all devices that I have connected wired have issues and all wireless devices are fine. I have to restart my router and the issue resolves until the next couple of days when I try to log back in. This issue is on all wired devices not just my 2 consoles, anyone have any advice?

Re: xr500 xbox disconected

Have you set up IP address reservations for your consoles? 

My XR450 went online today with my two XB1s, both wired. NAT Filter set to OPEN. IP address reserved at 192.168.1.198 and 199. DHCP IP address pool set for 100 thru 200. 

DNS Quad 1 and 9
