Orbi RBR850 loses IPv6 connection daily
My brand new Orbi RBR850 loses IPv6 connections daily. To temporarily fix it, I have to re-enable it every day in the web GUI under Advanced > Advanced > IPv6 > Apply. No IPv6 configuration info or control is possible via the IOS app. I bought the Orbi in large part because it claimed to support IPv6.
Before installing this netgear router, I had an (now EOL and discontinued) apple router that never lost IPv6 connections. I have used IPv6 with Comcast on my residential connection for a decade and never had this problem before buying this Netgear Orbi router.
Good news, this problem seems to have been addressed by firmware updates. Now running V3.2.17.12.

What FW version are you using? V32 is most current version.
I would make contact with NG support about this and let them know what you seeing with IPv6. Maybe something they need to correct.
Yes, I'm using the current firmware V3.2.15.32 on both my RBR850 router and RBS850 satellite.
Any progress on this?
