R7000 not getting iPv6 on my xbox & Packet Loss
Hey, I've been having problems recently with my R7000, I love to game on my xbox but these past few days are not letting me play, first, I'm not getting iPv6 on my xbox, it just says I'm connected to iPv4. I am also getting a lot of packet loss when checking my wifi on the xbox, I already tried resetting my router and already tried enabling QoS, can anybody fix this problem?
This firmware version has a lot of issues, as do the past few releases. For the R7000, it is recommended to run the .42 firmware, which is the last known "working" one.

which firmware version?
- The newest one that came out I believe, I checked on the website and it says," Firmware version V1.0.9.88_10.2.88"

Revert back to older firmware, accept that Netgear hates its customers, and carry on. Maybe consider another router/brand, as even reverting back has issues. My once perfect router now needs to be restarted every few days, after I reverted from the disaster that is .88
