What is the model of the modem/router the R2 is connected to and how have you set that to ensure all traffic flows to the R2? E.g. R2 in its DMZ, modem/bridge mode

@V1k1 that's interesting about the USB, do you have the router connected to a power extender or direct to an outlet? If an extender please try direct to an outlet. Otherwise do you have another power adapter you could try with? Then see if both issues are better please

If you have the same issue without the XR in play then it won't be the router causing the issue

If you take your modem out of modem mode and connect both direct to that do you get the same issue?

Yes delete it entirely and then try again please

Are they both Xboxes? Are you using the Geo-Filter when this happens, if so disable it, does the chat work then?

While connected to the router via a wired Windows PC, open command prompt, type ipconfig press enter and then post a screenshot of the results here please. For MAC it's ifconfig in terminal I think.

That's the question isn't it, everything appears to be correct from what you've said so I can't see an obvious reason for the lower speeds. If you put the PC in the DMZ on the XR and do a speed test what do you get? Remove it from the DMZ immediately after testing.

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 in System Information) and enter it into the DMZ function on the ISP modem/router. You should get an Open NAT then.

There are channels and widths, you can experiment with both. QoS/SmartBOOST looks good. Disable Geo-Latency and keep Ping Assist at 0, that should help keep games inside your radius but as mentioned they use relay servers so it's not always possible to force the server you want. The controller icon is the game host, in most cases that will be the server.

I'd suggest making a new topic and we can go from there, include the results of the following in that topic: While connected to the router via a wired Windows PC, open command prompt, type ipconfig press enter and then post a screenshot of the results there please.

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

I did reply, you didn't reply to the answers to my questions, lets continue there: https://forum.netduma.com/topic/57918-disconnection-while-i-play/#comment-438933

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.
