For those on the beta and whom have native IPv6 support from there ISP, when you get a chance could you please check out how IPv6 is working if your ISP supports it natively. Especially important, if you are on Comcast, please test it out. The easiest would be to run the test at this site, it is quick and non-disruptive:
To turn on IPv6, go to your router admin page, Advanced Tab, click Advanced in the left sidebar, and click IPv6. On the right hand side click the drop down that may show "Disabled", and select "Auto Detect" (see screenshot below). Then click Apply. when complete, that dropdown value will show something else (like DHCP). Please report that too.
Most browsers (Edge, Chrome, Safari; don't know about Firefox) appear to default to IPv6 now, so if IPv6 is flaky, you will also see slow performance, lags bringing up web pages, etc. So please post here what you see good/bad! Be sure and report your IPv6 test score from the above web page (more importantly, what tests if any failed, or post a screenshot), report your ISP, and the IPv6 type from the dropdown box on the right:
You should see a test score of 10/10 if everything is working. Check it over time too, as we have seen things change over time.
Please post your results. NOTE: To test IPv6 features, the RBR needs to be in router mode, not AP mode. Please observe IPv6 uptime and any disconnections of IPv6 and post your observations seen Please post who the ISP you use. Please post brand and model# of ISP modem/ONT that the Orbi system is connected to. IPv6 Type (Auto, DHCP, 6to4 Tunnel, etc) Your default IPv6 DNS server(s) (ISPs, Google, Cloudfare, Quad9 etc.) Please try a custom IPv6 DNS configuration besides the ISP default. Operating System of device used to test (Windows 11, Mac Ventura 13.5, iOS 16.5, etc.)
I have an ATT router in front with WiFi and most features disabled and configured to put the outside IP on the Orbi router MAC. Orbi is configured with DHCP-PD and appears to work great. I do not see a way to configure custom ipv6 Dns in this configuration which is a shame because I prefer to use Cloudflare for both v4 and v6.
