    So need more details besides "broke". Not helpful on what is really happening. 

    What is actually happening for these items. Please post screen captures would be helpful.

    What browser are you using? 

    Happens with different browsers? 

    What ISP are you using? They support IPv6 6to4? Seen some where there depreciating some 6to4 services. 

    What brand and model modem are you using?

    Use the NIST Internet Time Servers Atomic Clocks for your NTP Settings.

    Are sure your ISPs IPv6 protocol is 6to4. Do they have IPv6? Who is your ISP.

    What about them are "broke"?

    What was your "usual" reset and restart "afresh"?

      Hi,

       

      I updated my R8000P to this firmware last night, performed a factory reset and setup from scratch.

       

      DNS seems to be working fine without IPv6 enabled.

       

      Address Reservation under LAN Setup

      Adding a reservation either via the table or manually you get the message below:

       

       

      NTP settings were not working when I first setup, but trying again just now has worked fine.

        NTP setting where stuck on Data West Line and wouldn’t change regardless of how many times I clicked apply! 

        6tot4 tunnel doesn’t enable ipv6 when applied


        Reservations fire out an invalid Mac error

         

        all worked perfectly when I went back to .68! 👍🏻

        gonna wait til My Armor sub expires and buy another brand router as the r8000p is nearly 4yrs old and the FW has been broken for 3 of them! 🤯
