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!
donawalt I see v.5 appeared today. Hoping that this may see some better results on this.
Let us know if you can load it up and what you experience. I would give it a few days to settle in on IPv6 and check the results.
FarmerBob1 Can chime in on this as well.
Hi FURRYe38 I have 4.6.8.5 installed on my 2 RBS850s and RBR850. Interestingly, I turned on IPv6, tested, it worked fine. I ran a speediest, refreshed a few web pages that were up on my browser, all was fine. I rebooted, waited for things to settle, and happened to check IPv6 again, and it failed! Maybe this was some sort of startup/update anomaly. I now have it back on as of 1:15 PM EDT, so I'll watch it and report back. Thanks for staying up on top of this!
How did you Install the new FW?
FarmerBob1 I installed it manually per the instructions down the page where the firmware update was announced. In short, I manually uploaded the FW on each satellite's web page first, then did the router through the router/main web page.
Seems like newer FW may still be having problems?
