ipV6 disconnecting on Orbi RBR850
(NOT RBK53 model in drop down, why is RBR850 not there?) I have RBR850, firmware V4.6.7.13_2.1.9, and a CM1200 modem connected to Comcast's 1.2/40 service. All is working well, speeds, modem numb...

OK, it's been two weeks, and my IPv6 has been working perfectly all that time, no more disconnects! I am going to mark this thread as solved, with the update of firmware to 4.6.8.5 being the thing that fixed it. If others are still having trouble I suggest starting a new thread, as there may be multiple issues. Thanks everyone for your help!

Way cool. Thanks. I particularly like the tab which explains how the tests were run. I'm guessing that "Fail" means that all of the IPv6 tests were not successful?
- donawaltApr 03, 2022Mentor - Experienced UserYes, sorry, I should’ve been more accurate. Any of those 10 tests related to IPv6 said fail. For example, there was no IPV6 IP address.

I'm on Spectrum, which shows "DHCP" in the connection type. (which is correct).
My Enable RIPng box is checked.
Wonder if Jason Fesler would comment on your results?

Yes, mine goes to DHCP connection type once I do an auto-detect.
Now, it has been about 6 hours and it's still working. Maybe reboot the server first, then Auto Detect does the trick? We will wait and see!
