Thanks for the suggestion, I have disabled IPv6.
As for the suggestion to modify the Calix, this had been done when they installed it. CL had originally put a C3000a in front of the Calix and configured the C3000a as the router. I bought the Nighthawk to replace the C3000a because of it's terrible range. It is possible the CL has pushed down an update since the recent change to Quantum, I plan on seeing how stable this is with the IPV6 change and if it is still an issue, I will connect directly to the Calix with a cable and look at the web interface.

Not sure why the C3000 was used in front of the Calix. The Calix already in a ONT/Router/Wifi combo system. If you use the RAX router, would need to disable the wifi radios on the Calix system and use it's DMZ or IP pass thru for the RAX router. OR, leave the Calix as the main host router, disable wifi on the Calix system and configure the RAX router for AP Mode.
