It looks like Netgear have in fact abondoned the R8000, while they still seem to support the R7000! Disgusted, I guess the next move is Asus.
The IP6 issue is a joke!

Netgear has abandoned R8000? The old R7000 got the firmware update recently but no R8000 update for 7 months.

Ya, it's pretty sad, I've had a pretty bad experience with my R8000 so far, it's quite unstable, especially compared to my previous (non netgear) AC1900 router.
This is my first, and last Netgear from the looks of it, unless Netgear can pull a rabbit out of its behind and give us some amazingly stable and feature rich firmware soon.

I suffer from the known ipv6 issue with PPPoE where the router won't issue a ipv6 address on the LAN. There is a long thread about it on the ZEN Internet forums. It does seem specific to Zen Internet PPPoE connections. Negear have tried fixing this for the R7000 and have issued beta firmware for users affected to try to resolve it. There is no such help for R8000 users.
