ipV6 disconnecting on Orbi RBR850
(NOT RBK53 model in drop down, why is RBR850 not there?) I have RBR850, firmware V4.6.7.13_2.1.9, and a CM1200 modem connected to Comcast's 1.2/40 service. All is working well, speeds, modem numb...

OK, it's been two weeks, and my IPv6 has been working perfectly all that time, no more disconnects! I am going to mark this thread as solved, with the update of firmware to 4.6.8.5 being the thing that fixed it. If others are still having trouble I suggest starting a new thread, as there may be multiple issues. Thanks everyone for your help!

How did you Install the new FW?

FarmerBob1 I installed it manually per the instructions down the page where the firmware update was announced. In short, I manually uploaded the FW on each satellite's web page first, then did the router through the router/main web page.

Seems like newer FW may still be having problems?

FURRYe38 and FarmerBob1 yes, the IPv6 stopped working for me on the .5 release.
This morning it was a little over 17 hours from when I turned on IPv6 (Comcast - I set Auto Detect, and it went to DHCP as it always does, to set up. All last night it was fine. This morning I woke up, and it fails. Here are screen shots of 2 different test sites. It's odd how the tests say there is no IPv6 address, yet there is one. I also included a screen shot of my IPv6 config page below. Pls advise if there are any next steps I can do.

Keep trying for next couple of days.
I'll let NG know.
