Ethernet not working


Recommended Posts

My wifi currently works but my xbox won't work longer than 30 minutes and it's hardwired. I've had countless issues since purchasing this router that I NEVER encountered prior.  The damn ethernet ports aren't even labeled correctly on this. How do you mess this up? That screams incompetence.

EDIT: the router no longer will connect to the internet. The light just flashes orange.  I can plug my computer directly into the modem and it works fine.

My wifi currently works but my xbox won't work longer than 30 minutes and it's hardwired. I've had countless issues since purchasing this router that I NEVER encountered prior. This thing is getting returned tomorrow. What a waste of 300 dollars. The damn ethernet ports aren't even labeled correctly on this. How do you mess this up? That screams incompetence.

 

EDIT: the router no longer will connect to the internet. The light just flashes orange. Don’t tell me to reboot or unplug and plug back in. Done this 10 times already. Everyone knows to do this. I can plug my computer directly into the modem and it works fine. Your move.

Hi.

 

There's a known issue regarding the xbox that is currently being investigated, the workaround at the moment is to turn off "instant on" on the xbox and then reboot the router, I had the same issue prior to doing this. 

 

As for the incorrect labelling of the ethernet ports that is down to netgear and is not the fault of netduma as netduma only creates the firmware. I read somewhere that Netgear are willing to exchange models that are incorrectly labelled for ones manufactured recently with correct labelling, but you would have to contact netgear to confirm this.
