Different MAC address
The MAC address on the label of my R6 8000 ends in 82 but in the admin page it is shown ending in 83. Why might this be?
Also every web page is coming up as not available but resolves okay after around four seconds. My Windows 10 computer is ethernet connected.

Because you may have various wired and wifi network connections available, including 2,4 and 5 GHz.

What firmware version do you have on the device?
A number is more useful than "the latest". (It may not be by the time people read this.) There can also be newer versions, or "hot fixes", that do not show up if you check for new firmware in the browser interface.
