I loaded up my 854 series yesterday with newest FW version v.8 and got it factory reset. Soon as I can complete setting it up today or this weekend, will be putting it online as my main home network system and have IPv6 enabled though not ISP native, I use a 3rd party IPv6 service available and will get the 850 configured for it and see what happens.
There is one user over on reddit reporting that IPv6 has been working for them and there 960 series on prior v.5 released FW and has just updated to v.8 on there system and will continue to monitor. There IPv6 ISP native there.

I did run 8.5 a while back with no luck, IPv6 dropped. I'll keep an eye on the posts and see what is mentioned regarding this latest .8 version
