JimmyJimmy Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 simple question is it coming this month yes or no answer only please. xr300 beta doesn't matter if it works because I'm gonna throw the router away when I buy a new one, or blow it up and post a youtube link if anyone is interested.

Expand It's not that simple, development is a long process and if it hits QA and bugs are found then they will be fixed which will ultimately push back when we can release it. We learnt a long time ago that it was better not to give dates. JimmyJimmy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand ah ok thanks, I know that giving a date is impossible with all the testing that is needed that's why I wanted an unfinished version. But if it's so instable that I can't use it than I might as well buy an upgrade. It just sucks that in the netherlands you can't buy a netduma from a reputable store and I don't really want to support netgear since they bottleneck the cheaper versions through software.

Expand That would be great, from where do you ship and how long would that normally take? I'm worried that due to the pandemic it would get a lot of delays. Also in the netherlands you get screwed over a lot by vats even when already handled, they still try to get you to pay extra which is weird and borderline criminal.

Its only 388 and upload is 548 while i have an 1Gbps connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did you input your speeds as being during initial setup? You can double check by going to the three-dot menu in the top right and going to advanced -> network speeds.

Expand If you're seeing that in Connection Benchmark, that's telling us what the R2 is getting from the modem. If it were a problem with the R2 then you would see 1gpbs in connection benchmark but lower speeds to connected devices. Are there other devices connected to the modem/router or does everything on the network go through the R2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurricane1984 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 I only use the XR500 as modem/router. When i do speedtest via Ookla i get 950 up and down, only when i do the connection benchmark via the interface i get this low speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netduma Liam Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Thanks, there is actually now a newer beta firmware that we'd suggest you upgrade to:https://www.dropbox.com/s/l3oeb6dw25ngmwm/XR500-V2.3.2.120.zip?dl=0 We'd suggest factory resetting after you've installed this, you can then go through and quickly setup the network settings again, hopefully that should resolve your issue.

hurricane1984 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Nope, this is the worst firmware i ever tested: I flashed, reset defaults and put settings again and this is the result. With previous firmware i got much better results. do you guys test this before bring this to public or do you let us the consumer test this instead?

Expand Is that the only reason you think it is the worst firmware so far? We've said previously the Ping Under Load needs to be improved - it doesn't mean you will necessarily get those spikes. You also need to adjust QoS to get a better result on that test. Also as we use the Google servers for the ping tests if you have a bad connection to them then it will be reflected there.
