R8000 ipV6 DNS IP firmware issue

Hi Netgear,

Your latest firmware ( V1.0.4.68_10.1.75 ) update broke the IPv6 DNS server manual entries under at least 6to4 Tunnel AND DHCP options for Internet Connection Type. No matter the number of times I try to enter the correct IPv6 server entry, the results are as shown below despite the IPv6 sometimes latching via connected devices DNS info. Please see the attached image.

You should know that this community is essentially a user-to-user venue with some input from a small band of Netgear techies.

 

Most of the answers come from fellow users who have no connection with Netgear. They just have a lot of collective experience and are familiar with the sort of problems that turn up here.

 

If you want "official" support then you should go through the right channels.

 

Contact Us | Support | NETGEAR

 

If the firmware has bust things, then you can revert to an earlier version.

 

How do I manually upgrade firmware to my NETGEAR router? | Answer | NETGEAR Support

 

Visit the support pages:

Support | NETGEAR

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.

That page will also have any software, firmware and drivers for your device, if they exist.
