Netgear xr500 ipv4 seemingly stops working randomly
Heyo, I bought my XR500 a good while ago, but the last few months I've had a really annoying issue where the IPv4 portion of the network, seemingly just dies, and doesn't come back until I reboot the...
Basically when it happens, I can't use anything that is IPv4 only, for example sites like Reddit and Google, which have IPv6 addresses, I can access. But basically everything else like discord and duckduckgo, are inaccessible.
I confirmed this by checking test-ipv6.com, where it would show IPv6 address but no IPv4 address on all my devices, and doing a ping to google DNS would work but not much else.
It could be my ISP, but why I don't think so is because the issue gets resolved when I reboot the router.
Okay that's interesting, could you reproduce the issue then provide the logs from the System Information page please?
