This maybe a work around for some and maybe not so much for others. May depend on ISP as awell. Over all this is a IPv6 issue that NG needs to resolve. If you need Ipv6 then use what works for you, older FW or configurations that may help. Otherwise users may need to disable IPv6 until NG gets something in FW that fixes all this.

It's Comcast's fault as well as NG. Aside from the setup of IPv6 with Verizon I had had zero problems.

Just curious though after you have been home for a while are you running random ipv6 tests on your phone?

Since you mentioned the issue I I have been checking daily or even more often. If I am in my house for a prolonged period of time I can lose IPv6 on my phone. Switching to cellular and back to WiFi resolves the problem for me. Perhaps it is a Samsung problem.
