    IPv6 routing has remained up and running.  So,in my case, it depends on the Comcast IPv6 address issued by Comcast DHCPv6 on the WAN side, AND the Comcast IPv6 net address assigned on the Netgear LAN side which are used for Netgear DHCPv6 on that LAN side. How those Comcast routable IPv6 addresses get to the LAN side, I do not know.  Nonetheless, I guess I have "good" routing IPv6 addresses at this time (by luck).

     

    Solution if IPv6 routing stops: Either 1] reboot RAX45, or 2] reset and "Apply" the IPv6 setting (described earlier in this thread) on the WAN side configuration.
