No. They are different. The saved configuration MAY not copy "garbage that has collected" in memory. In that case, the reset clears the garbage and reinstalling the configuration is great. On the other hand, if the actual saved config file is corrupted, restoring it will restore the garbage. I prefer to spend 10 minutes taking a chance on restoration before committing to two hours of manual data entry.
I have very good news! I installed the FW update V4.6.14.3. I factory reset and set it up again. IPv6 dropped after an hour. I set it to DHCP and got another IP and it has stayed stable for more than a week now. So maybe the FW update did solve this problem. I have not had IPv6 connections for more than a year so I am hoping this fixed it.
I wish I knew in more detail what Netgear did in the latest FW upgrade. The changelog is not very detailed.
