Was browsing routers on amazon as I usually do and couldnt believe the "Special Features" offered on this Ubiquiti Amplifi router. Netduma you need to go back to the drawing board 😁

@Reykc9510So sorry for the late approval of your post and that another moderator had not done it sooner for you. 😲

Insulting of other members on this forum is not tolarated. Lets keep it friendly and if you cant say anything politely or nicely then it is best to say nothing at all. Hope everyone is well.

can you send me the .23 firmware fraser please?

Arrived yesterday. Box and contents well presented. The router looks better quality than the R2 which i found felt cheap and had very sharp corners. The OS4 is very nice and modern and looks like a lot of work has gone into it. Congrats to the Netduma team.

I have decided to buy it too and waiting for it to arrive.

Wouldnt be better to have the R2 as the main router with the Asus connected and have the asus router use its own networking capabilities for parental controls and wifi and have the gaming pc/console connected directly to the netduma and wifi disabled on the R2? that's how mine is configured. Everything is connected to the AX88U apart from my mac, my linux pc and my XBOX which go directly into the R2.

You didn't install the firmware using wifi did you by any chance? Just with you saying you had a "connection interrupted" message, that would imply that's why.

Hi and welcome. currently there is no scheduling ability on the router at the moment.

eye candy. They make em to resemble stealth fighters to give the impression of speed and responsiveness. It's all about marketing and capturing a certain age group and target audience.

Asus have 1 that looks looks similar. Bloody ugly looking things. Under the hood the XR1000 is a tempting purchase.

You say your XR500 was in AP mode, was it behind another router and is it still?. There is some sort of port conflict going on which is why I suggested a DMZ as I know from checking that the HUE uses standard port 80 to access the internet. I suggest using UPnP and 1 router only unless you are familiar in vlans or know how to setup different subnets.

have you contacted their tech support or looked on their site to find out which port or range of ports your hue uses? You could try inputting the ip address of the hue that the XR500 assignes into the XR500 DMZ and see if it works then ( a reboot of the hue maybe required after this). This would indicate a port issue. I would assigne a static ip address to the hue beforehand.

They do not want users to use their own hardware, they specifically mask their usernames and passwords and unless you know how to obtain them via wireshark then you are forced to use their hardware!
