Re: Will this router work after the switch to IPv6?
What mode is the ISP modem working in? Router or Bridge? If in router mode, probably not.
This would be a double NAT condition which isn't recommended. https://kb.netgear.com/30186/What-is-Double-NAT

Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge or modem only mode. Then use the NG router in router mode. You'll need to contact the ISP for help and information in regards to the modem being bridged correctly.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the modem, configure the modems DMZ/ExposedHost or IP Pass-Through for the IP address the NG router gets from the modem. https://kb.netgear.com/25891/DMZ-on-NETGEAR-routers

Not sure why you're asking about the g1100.
Do you have a netgear router?

We received an email from Verizon (see below). Our other router is a Fios-G1100 model. It is not clear from Verizon's email if that model will work after the upgrade adding support for the IPv6 discussed in the email below.

If this is only in reference to Verizon's router, you'll need to contact Verizon for help and information regarding there product.
If you have NG router, please state the model you have.
