Yorkshirelion Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Hi, My network has been running solidly for the last 12 days which is the longest since having it that it hasn’t been rebooted for one reason or another outside of the routers control. However on this the 12th day the gui no longer loads correctly, I get the error message about the R-App taking too long, in saying this the router is working as it should despite this error. I was hoping that this router would be stable for the long term without having to reboot, my last ASU’s router needed a reboot once a week to stay operational and I was hoping this would not be the case with this router. The firmware is the latest and not the 3.0 beta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 24, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 24, 2020 I would recommend upgrading to the 3.0 beta because it should resolve this and if not then we can look at directly why that may be happening and then deploy a fix.

I have been looking at the forums over on Netgear and the 3.0 beta seems to have a lot of stability issues in of itself and as I value stability it doesn’t seem like the smart move right now. Especially the 100% cpu usage bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crunkjuice1 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 If I already have the first XR500 3.0 beta firmware from first mass release can I just reinstall it? Or is there something different within this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkshirelion Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 Ok, I have updated to the new firmware, devices were dropping off the network and everything had slowed down on the router. On the new 3.0, if I set filesharing for example to 0% that would mean that no bandwidth would be reserved for filesharing but it can have the excess? Do device and application qos work in tandem? Also how do I know if a media stream for example is being picked up by the application QOS for example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you can only use Device or Application allocation not both at the same time. You won't be able to tell, it is just for assigning bandwidth to those devices. We will have an Rapp in future called Data History that would give you more information like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the information, I’m not sure what the best QOS would be on my system, I think for now I will use the application QOS as I like the idea that file downloads and console downloads hopefully would get throttled but that would also take bandwidth away from my stadia streaming. However for the most part I only really use Stadia when the Network is quiet due to the amount of bandwidth required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 25, 2020 Administrators Share Posted September 25, 2020 Either way should be fine, if you use it with Congestion Control then you'll never saturate the network and cause lag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
