    Well must say, kinda reason why there is a beta group and if your apart of it, would be to test a beta build out. I'll be hooking mine up though and will report my findings.

    Some speed tests. 1. QoS Disabled. 2. QoS Enabled - Both sliders at 100% 3. QoS Enabled - Down at 75% and Up at 99%.

    Just curious if you have tried this version of FW and xbox chat yet?

    Ok, I would have sworn it was working. But no matter. I haven't used the wifi radio on this router at all. 😉 Thank you.

    Couple of items I saw today after loading v207. I did a reset on the R1 first. Installed v207. Factory reset again just to be sure. Cleared out all browser caches from Edge/Opera. I get a log in screen here? I used admin and password. I would request this initial log in screen be removed until the user inputs new log in credentials during the initial setup wizard process. Walked thru the setup wizard and set up new log in credentials for admin and the password. Completed the wizard. 1. Noticed that the WIFI LED on the R1 is not enabled or ON. WIFI settings were enabled on the UI and appeared on my phone as a SSID to connect to. I disable the WIFI radio button then turned it back ON. Still nothing on the routers LED. 2. Closing the browser and opening Opera, I got the log in screen however the newly entered credentials input did not get me into the routers web page. Kept asking for credentials. I then input the default admin/password and got in. I would expect that the setup wizard would have updated the admin log in credentials during the setup? If I reboot the R1, then seems that the new log in credentials are put in place and I can get in.

    Yes I was asking what modem you had. The huawei modem is a CABLE Modem. The TP Link Archer C7 1250 is a ROUTER. Not a cable modem/router. The C7 is a WiFI Router only. The hauwai is a cable modem only. I was trying determine what you had and why your asking about the TPLink Archer router having a Puma Chip set. It doesn't due to the fact that Intel Puma Chip sets are only used on Cable modems. Not used in any WiFi routers at all. Unfortunately public access to resources regarding what modems have which chip sets is now been taken offline. Wikidevi.com was the site that posts this information about different routers and modems. This site has been closed down. So I don't know what the hauwei modem/ONT is using for it's chip set. You might ask the Mfr. Personally I would not use anything huawei. I saw some posts on searches that this model huawei is out of date as well. Something to consider upgrading to something newer at some point. Good luck.
  7. e38BimmerFN
    Do you have a link to the support site your this? The c7 model is a router only. No built in modem. There A and C series are routers only from what there site says. The CR series are there gateway modems with built in routers. So the huawei is you ISP modem?
  8. e38BimmerFN
    Puma Chip sets are only seen in cable modems.

    NetGear CM1100 is a good modem. Broadcom based and Zero issues with it. Just another suggestion. Also check with your ISP to see what they support for BYOM.
  10. e38BimmerFN
    Overall you'll be fine with what you have going. If your ISP is supporting the speeds and modem currently then keep it. Just know that they may require you to go with a newer model modem that supports more channels. As time goes one, older 4x4 or 8x4 modems will no longer be supported as ISPs will improve there systems for faster speeds that support higher channels, 24 and 32 and DOCSIS 3.1 is becoming the norm going forward. So for now, if your getting to spec speeds with the 7610, and your ISP lets you use it, then keep it going. Just keep in mind, any changes in the future may require a different modem capabilities.
  11. e38BimmerFN
    Then the 7620 would be supported if that model is on there list. Also the Arris 6183 is a good modem as well. Also a broadcom modem. Only if your wanting to increase your speeds. Again if your happy with what you have, then keep it. If you wanting to go with 200/10, then the 7620 or the 6183 will work just fine. I have the 6183 and a 7420 and they both work find on my 200/10 ISP service. However I have two games on my system and do lots of streaming so 200/10 is needed for my needs.
  12. e38BimmerFN
    Check with your ISP to see what they support as far as DOCSIS 3 or 3.1. The 7620 is NOT on the bad modems list and is Broadcom based. If the ISP will still allow the 7610 on there system at the supported speed, then keep it. However when you upgrade speeds, you'll probably need to upgrade your modem to 24 or 32 channel or DOCSIS 3.1 supporting modems at that point.
  13. e38BimmerFN
    Yes, you'll have better performances with 16x4 than with 8x4 channels. The 7620 specs: WAN throughput: 680 Mbps WAN throughput upstream: 143 Mbps 7610 specs: WAN throughput: 343 Mbps WAN throughput upstream: 143 Mbps Also as ISP upgrade and improve there services, 8x4 and 16x4 will become out dated and some ISP will mandate or require the use of better modems with 24 or 32 channel support. Keep this in mind. A good modem list can be reviewed here: https://badmodems.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5

    Does there chips exhibit the same problem?

    Users with modem/router combos that can't bridge them can also use a feature known as DMZ and this will help with this double NAT condition when using modem/router combo units. Looks like your speeds are to spec and worth the tedious hassle of working with your ISP to get that. I'm jealous.
  18. e38BimmerFN
    Let us know how it goes...
  19. e38BimmerFN
    There all good modems. Just avoid modems based on Intel chip sets for now. If you want to see a real list of bad modems not to use: http://badmodems.com/Forum/app.php/badmodems
  20. e38BimmerFN
    Thats not a Intel based modem. Would be recommended and will work with the R1 or XR500.
  21. e38BimmerFN
    The are known issues with the TM1602 modem. It's intel based: http://badmodems.com/Forum/app.php/badmodems http://www.badmodems.com/ Any broadcom based modems do not have these problems like Intel modems have: http://badmodems.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=65000 I'm using a Motorola MB7420 and Arris 6183 with a 200/10 ISP service with an R1 and a XR500 routers. Zero issues. Always contact your ISP to see what they officially support first. The TC 7610 is a 8x4 modem. Is capable of a bit over 300Mb however some ISP like to use more channels for higher speeds. So with mine using 200/10, my modems are 24x8 channel modems. My ISP recommends using the 24x8 modems over 8x4 for faster or higher speed tiers. All depends on what ISP implement and required for there systems to work at speeds on there networks. Review what your ISP requires for there networks. If you keep the 200 speed tier, get in to a 24x8 channel modem. It's up to you want to down grade. Speed depends on your needs. UP Link is more important than download.

    Puma 6 and 7 is mostly Cable modems. Not sure if DSL is using those specific chip sets. A Netgear DSL modem will work with the R1. However, I would check with your ISP service to see what they officially support. Some ISPs only allow certain model modems. DSL is over phone lines. http://forum.netduma.com/topic/23764-pppoe/?do=findComment&comment=172056
  23. e38BimmerFN
    As long as the modem has Ethernet and can be bridged to allow the NetDuma router to handle PPPoE connections, or if the modem can't be bridged, the modem should have a DMZ to place the NetDuma router into, most DSL modems will be fine. Just ensure that single on the phone lines between the modem and ISP services are to spec and have good quality signal.
  24. e38BimmerFN
    What ISP are you using? I recommend contacting your ISP. Most Fiber ISP use whats known as a ONT and not a actual modem. Most Fiber services required there own HW and is provided by the ISP. ONTs are not effected by the Puma 6 issue. I recommend only using modems on this list as its more up to date and more accurate with information: http://badmodems.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5 Any Broadcom base modems work great with the R1 router. Avoid modems on this list: These are Intel based. http://badmodems.com/Forum/app.php/badmodems
  25. e38BimmerFN
    The 6183 is a good modem and works well with the R1. The only Arris modem to stay away from is the SB6190 modem. It's intel based and has the puma 6 chip set problem. The Arris SB8200 is the DOCSIS 3.1 modem and has already deployed on some ISPs and soon as ISPs tests it out, it will be supported on those who approve it it's used. I hear it's also backwards compatible.
