XR1000 IPV6 DNS Not saving
Anyone else seeing since firmware .50 and 52. If you try to set your own ipv6 dns server it looks like it saves but ones you log off and log in again its changed to your isp dns server. Happens loggi...
Using my asus windows 10 laptop w intel ax200 wifi card and firmware lastest version and software up to date. Browers I have tried google chrome and ms edge browser. Disabled the ad blocker plugin for chrome and edge I have nothing installed as I really dont use that browers. It looks like it saves but after a while I log back in and its reverted to isp dns. I have tried auto config, auto detect, and dhcp. All with the same result of it either changing back to isp's dns or giving it some time and logging back in and it showing isp's ipv6 dns instead. Ipv4 dns works fine with no issues after I changed those. It works fine in the older .43 build and eariler firmwares. This only started to happen in the .50 and .52 builds now. I changed the ipv6 to cloudflares but its defaulted back to comcasts dns servers.
One thing that was always constant even in eariler builds was it showing no ipv6 connectivity after a few hours or days after a restart. I would have to go in and switch between one of the ipv6 settings like auto config to auto detect back to auto config and the router would not release the connection. If I didnt do that after a restart it would eventaully lose ipv6 connectivity for some reason.
Those are the only two issues I really have with this router is the ipv6 stuff not working correctly.
We can see the issue here. We will provide the fix in next release. Thanks for reporting this issue to us.
Thank you. Any chance of maybe getting a beta version to test? Not sure when the next release will come out.
- jdtime NG don't generally provide beta releases via the forum, other than the 3.0 beta and pre-release betas so probably won't be possible.
Any updates on this? Its been two months now. Is a new version of firmware coming out soon a beta anything?
- They will provide a firmware as soon as they can, it will need to go through their QA process which is thorough.
