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!

Well, I went 24 days with solid IPv6, this morning there was no IPv6 address - and as you can see from the posted image, it was not like the other times that I thought the latest firmware fixed, where an IPv6 address showed on the router page, but the IPv6 tests failed - as you can see, there is no IP address at all reported by the RBR850! All I did this time was just click "Apply", and it came back with an IP address. Is this related to a lease renewal, or on anomaly, or ...? I'll keep a log and keep watching it. It will be interesting now to see if something happens in another 24 days. Let me know if there are any ideas to check since this looks different than before.
