Can you imaging when your cell phone not working 100% after an auto firmware update? Online product review can make or break a business. I got my R8000P from Costco, and I didn't do my homework. If I did I would not buy Netgear. The clerk told me more than a few people started to returning their routers because they're not working right after firmware update. And then there're people like me looking at forum like this one to find solutions. Most people don't want to deal with problems, they just want plug and play. No one want to reset or mess with the settings to making it work as before firmware upgrade. I hope Netgear PR is looking at online reviews and forum to see what people are saying about their products, if they want to keep their jobs.

Try enabing IPv6. It has worked for others. Works on my R7960P.
