R6220 - Does NOT support IPv6
Before purchased R6220, I have checked support web site (http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/19308/~/ipv6-compatibility-on-netgear-routers) shows that it does support IPv6 on the latest fir...
Hi all,
Please update the router to the latest firmware version (1.1.0.50).

I'm not privy to Netgear's beta process in particular, but having had experience at other companies, I would say that you should not draw this conclusion. Beta programs are frequently limited in order to make it manageable for the company. While you might think that it makes sense to make beta software publicly available, it can often be less effective to do this. The volume or quality of feedback could be too high and poor, respectively, or the software could have known, serious issues that would make it unsuitable for general use.
It is taking Netgear quite some time to add IPv6 and you are certainly entitled to give up on waiting, but don't let beta participation unduly influence your decision.

If they advertise IPv6 on the box, that is the technology I paid for. I don't have IPv6 on Wireless N even after the firmware. I had to dismiss my warantee rights to get the beta. Am I happy as a beta tester? FU$K NO! I paid over $100 for a IPv6 router. My ISP is fully IPv6 set. So Netgear Says their router is IPv6 but it is not. That means they committed fraud. I DON"T GIVE A FU$K how long it took Netgear to develop IPv6, why do you think that would matter? If they can't figure it out, then they should not post it on their product description. It is like they don't really have software engineers employed; they might just be some ringky dink company on the edge of unsolvency. Maybe it is time for them to fold as a company, now that they perpetrated this kind of fraud.

It is July 2016, and the R6220 doen't do IPv6 as descirbed on the box, IPv6 doesn't work with wireless N even after applying their secret beta software.
But their people want screen shots of my systems...how lame a rinky-dink operation they must have. This is a copmany to avoid at all costs.
