I am having awful issues with dropping connections with Fios
I am not an expert so thanks for the help... I am having awful issues with dropping connections with Fios. Android devices but also more recent laptops also. No apple house. Netgear has been working ...
One you must use the FiOS router in bridge mode
FWIW, I double-route (putting my 870 Orbi behind the FiOS router).
IPv6 is enabled on the FiOS router (DHCPv6-PD).
IPv6 is enabled on the 870 (auto detect+auto config), but I still only get link-local addresses on the clients. The auto detect results in "passthrough" on the connection type.
I've haven't tried to troubleshoot it, as I am not getting connection drops.
Would I be better off shutting ipv6 off on the router
It's worth a test.
Thanks so much for the input... I'm going to disable ipv6 and see how that goes and get debug files on that, and if still have problems going to put the fios router back in and just make them access points. What a waste of technology
