Can I see lease info on RBR850?
I was wondering if there is a way I can see the lease info (length, expiration) of my RBR850 router for the IP addresses it receives from my ISP (not my devices on the network)? I would assume leases...
I want to see the lease info real time, as I am interested in seeing when I lose my IPv6 connection with what appears to be a valid IP address reported on the Orbi router page, if that corresponds to when the lease expired. So calling won't help that much, but thanks for the idea!
Thanks for looking at the debug page. The only way to see 'real time' information about DHCP would be to monitor the actual ISP packets, and for most people the results probably would not be worth the effort.
CrimpOn sure. I was hoping there was something similar to seeing the DHCP info from a Windows pc when you do "Ipconfig /all", where you get lease obtained and expires time stamps.

I agree. That would be useful information. I have a suspicion that Netgear does not record the IPv6 lease information. I just now dumped the configuration file on my RBR50. There are a lot of parameters labelled "ipv6..." but there is nothing resembling a lease time (while the IPv4 lease information is obviously there).
