Problem with Andrdoid apps when IPv6 is enabled on my Orbi system.
This is such an elusive bug that I do not expect to get it fixed, especially since I do know if it's the router or Android causing it. Anyway, with otherwise working IPv6 enabled on my network certa...
ANOTHER UPDATE: I replaced my modem CM1000 > CM2000 and the problem is gone. How a modem change can fix an Andrdoid IPv6 problem I do not understand at all. All my Android phones now stay on and are not cut off like they have been over the last couple of months. This only happend on my home network. I had no such problems on our Ubiquiry powered work network, I could not figure it out. though. I replaced my modem since my service got upgraded and I had someone who could use the CM1000. I have to say that the CM2000 seems to be a very good modem and the fact that this process somehow fixed my probnlem makes me even happier I upgraded!
Did this issue just start?
Try disabling the daylight savings time and the traffic monitor and reboot the router

I do not have anything enabled on the router but I do have DST set. I can try without that but not sure why that would make a difference. We will see!
I wold like to add that it make take a day or two to see if this still happens since it's only when the phone is idle it happens and often only a couple of times a day. It started a coupe of months ago
the .104 firmware had some issues that cropped up after dayling savings times. Many found that their issues were resolved with disabling dst and the traffic monitor. Some had to downgrade the firmware to prior to the .104 version.
Seems like netgear is aware of the issue

I think this may have something to do with the limited IPv6 support on Android. If you use DHCP for IPv6 on the LAN Android is not able to use it. Has to be Auto Config. New FW sounds like a good thing, I have a feeling this started happening after I got .104
