Congestion Control & SmartBOOST aren't really on/off features, how were they set exactly? If they weren't set to relieve the saturation of your connection then it's possible it could cause that

Set NAT to Open in WAN Settings and try again

Switch it to AP mode (this disables all router functions), can you get full speeds through it then?

I know there was an issue getting it on originally, I can't recall if it was then ultimately not compatible with the architecture or not

Does the Tim modem have WiFi? Please grab the logs from Settings > Troubleshooting > Advanced when you next get a disconnect

Please answer the questions from above so I can help

That's not going to cause you any issues. Some hops on a route choose to give the least priority to ICMP pings and so when pinging intially before connecting it's giving a low priority reading. When you're actually connected your actual traffic will get that higher priority thus having a lower ping.

Just to clarify, your concern is the ping you see before connecting to the server is higher than what is shown when you then actually connect to it?

The only way is with using a VPN, it doesn't stop you getting booted from the game, you just won't be offline as long. To counteract the increased ping select the closest possible VPN server to you, it doesn't need to be one far away.

It could be Steady Ping, disable this and then see if it appears as you would expect

If your ISP modem/router has WiFi, set it up so that it is in bridge or modem mode, you can also use the DMZ. Copy the WAN IP from the XR (found on the System Information page) and enter it into the DMZ function on the ISP modem/router. You should get an Open NAT then. If it's still not option you can switch NAT to Open in WAN Settings.

Are you able to access the settings page via 192.168.1.1/adv_index.htm at all and initiate an update from there?

That's a bug on Early Access, you'll need to factory reset then it will stay and 0 and you won't be able to enable it again

The XR1000 doesn't have the HybridVPN feature and the VPN service option you're looking at isn't the same - what is it you're wanting to achieve?

Could you downgrade the firmware to a previous version and see if the WiFi is better for you please?

Is that in all directions from the router where that occurs? To me that sounds like classic interference, 5GHz doesn't have great penetration either so if there are several thick walls between it and a device it will struggle. Assuming you've optimised the channel manually for it and adjusted the widths with no noticeable improvement, are there any devices within that 5 - 20ft range that emit wireless signals - not just a device that can connect to WiFi but wireless headphones for example, even a microwave would affect it when in use

Not exactly on the fritz, if it can't ping the server then it can't know what additional ping to apply. It also won't work 100% of the time generally just due to compatibility

Are there any other settings you may have changed on the XR? In WAN Settings disable the protection options and set NAT to Open and see if that boosts it at all.

Could you reserve IPs for the devices connected to 5GHz in DHCP and see if it happens again please?

You can use code GAMEON10 for 10% off
