I have tried researching so long on this and I really don't want to pay this 60 bucks to talk to the netgear support. But I have this XR500, it has been absolutely amazing in every way. I just bought a house and set up DSL right away at the highest speeds available being 30mbps. Now this morning I just got it converted to fiber with a download speed of 1 gbps. I check the speed through the router app and it shows 986mbps which is perfect. I checked my phone via speedtest and it shows 350mbps which I am connected to the 40hz 5g so a little confused but whatever. But now on my Xbox's, I have two Xbox One's one for me and one for the lady. Both downloads at 27mbps.... i tried restarting the router. The firmware is up to date. I made sure to try the seperated 5g and 2.4g versus the dual band smart wifi option. Rebooted the xbox's. I checked the setting on the nighthawk and it is set for every device to be equal on the chart. I have 2 xbox's, 2 smartphones, a NVR and 2 Amazon Echo's... All of which don't use anything at all barely considering the usage chart in the nighthawk app. I am all wirless except the NVR. I know, I will soon be running my cat6 through the attic and to the xbox's but I only have wireless available at this moment.. Please help! This is my first Nighthawk and I really want to make this work. Thank you.
