cant access xr500


Recommended Posts

i recently got new internet and a new provider. When i put it in bridge mode, it recognizes the xr500 as a connected device, but using the 192.168.1.1 it does not let me into the xr500, it says page took too long to respond.

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.

Yes wirelessly,  10.0.0.1 doesn’t work but wired does which is fine I guess. New question, I have 1gb up and down and I have a cat6 cable from the xr500 into my console with qos has all upload of Xbox.  When I speed test the Xbox series x, it can’t get into the 700s, but the download is much higher. How come???

Is it definitely connected to the XR wireless? Do the ipconfig I mentioned previously but connected via WiFi and provide a screenshot of what you see.

You don't need to allocate it all your upload, games barely use any bandwidth, usually less than 1Mbps, giving it more doesn't make it use more. 

The console speed tests are estimates - it usually says this on the test itself. If you get your expected speeds via a wired PC to speedtest.net then you won't be limited.

Well what does the QoS do then if it doesn’t make it use more when u put it on certain devices? 

The purpose of QoS is to ensure that all your devices can be used at the same time without causing each other to lag/buffer and to place priorities on devices you choose. 

Giving the game more bandwidth wouldn't do anything, this is across the board, the game requires a certain amount of bandwidth and that's it, every game uses very little.

I can see it, could you do another via ethernet when the same thing has happened please? Also you mentioned " i hard wired laptop to the xr500 while in bridge mode" are you referring to the ISP modem/router being in bridge mode or you've set the XR500 in AP mode?
