R8500 Firmware V1.0.2.156 broke MMO

Hello,

After deploying the latest firmware update (V1.0.2.156), I am seeing a pause to load several websites and one of my MMOs (Secret World Legends) is no longer able to connect. That is the only change that occurred so it is definitely the firmware change. The same effect has been confirmed across 4 different PCs. Looking through the settings I don't see anywhere to make any sort of exceptions for whatever is causing the block. Any tips for correcting this?

Thank you,

Ron

Hi xphogt00, are you still experiencing the issue? If yes, have you tried the suggested step (Auto Detect should be just fine)?

First try enabling ipv6 if its not.

If that doesn't help, you might need to downgrade the firmware a version.

Yours isn't the first R8500 that I've seen with issues on the latest

  Thank you for the suggestion. It was disabled. Which of the many ipv6 modes would you suggest I try?
