I am using it for both ip v4 and 6 on my rbk53 system. Works well, no complaints.

    Have you keyed the settings in your router/Orbi or just into your devices?

      Hi, I made the changes to the settings directly in the router. Updating each device manually would take to much time, break automation and make it more difficult to troubleshoot. The only exception I see is if you got a dedicated DHCP server and a more complex hardware set up.
