IPv6 with Firmware Updates

Tried all versions floating around above v. 4.6.3.16 and my phone will not pull the IPv6 addresses and if it finally does, it is after several minutes. However never an issue with v. 4.6.3.16 and below. Anyone else see this behavior?

  • IPv6 was hit or miss until a FW update in the mid v3.x.x.x releases. After that one update perfect and stable. A while later when a change to the IPv6 setup page removed the incoming WAN address display from underneath the first line of text, as in the LAN area, there basically has been no IPv6.

      Well I would hope they certainly hope this is not an issue moving forward, I have remained on v. 4.6.3.16 to keep my "stable" IPv6

        I moved back to v4.6.6.11, had IPv6 this morning and now it's gone. I may have to join you.
