    386.5_2 IPv6 DHCP-PD Broken

    I am having a similar issue. I am using sing IPv6 in passthrough mode. After several days, clients lose their IPv6 information, (DNS, IP address...etc) and thus revert back to IPv4. I have to reboot the router to fix the issue. If I revert back to 386.3_2, the problem goes away. I first...

    IPv6 not working

    With T-Mobile Home Internet you need to set the connection type to Passthrough. Also, I have noticed a problem with the 386.4 version of Merlin where the 6relayd stops sending router announcements out every few days and you end up having to reboot the router. I reverted back to the prior...

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    To clarify, if a client has manually set the DNS server(s) on their device to only IPv6 address and DNS filtering is enabled for the client, the client doesn't get the filter and DNS on the client will not work at all. If the client has any IPv4 DNS servers defined, the filtering will work...

    Mine shows as forever. But T-Mobile doesn't support delegation.

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    The effort is appreciated. But, you can't come to the conclusions you are trying to come to with the limited amount of time and limited anecdotal evidence you are using. ASUS has been building home routers with IPv6 for years. And now suddenly today, in a 12 hour period, its being judged...

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    Understood The point is, its not disabled. And, you dont' even know why the one person reporting the issue is having the issue. I have been running for months without issue. You are completely missing the point Most of what I have seen in the past couple of posts show me a complete lack of...

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    The differences are pretty clear in the documentation. This is no different than the 3-4 different configurations possible for IPv4 setups with various ISP.s and ASUS and other routers. This is true for anything you enable on your router. Like I said, if you don't need it, don't turn it on...

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    Well, like I said from the start, I agree you should not turn it on unless you have a need or a benefit from it. But, I don't agree that enabling it when you have a need is a greater security risk. And, I don't see where the security issue has even been demonstrated in this thread. I have...

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    I didn't realize this thread is to try to convince you to enable IPv6 on your network. If you have no need or benefit for IPv6, why enable it? The reason why I started replying to posts in this thread was to disagree with the view that enabling IPv6 itself is a security issue, other than in...

    Yes. Thats the whole point.

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    Unless you change the settings on the DHCP Servers tab, your clients will get both the IPv4 and IPv6 address of the ASUS router as the DNS server. The ASUS router then performs the actual lookups based on the DNS servers that were passed to it by the ISP. What the ISP actually passes to the...

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    Comcast isn't using CG-NAT. They have both IPv4 and IPv6 running to houses. At least they do in my region. So, if you use their equipment, you get a dual stack setup with public IP's unless you do something to turn it off. This benefits everyone as many of the streaming services and CDN...

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    Yes. A lot of people are using IPv6 without even knowing it. For example, Comcast installs their home routers to customers with both IPv4 and IPv6 enabled. So, if you are a Comcast customer and you are using their equipment, you were setup with dual stack.

    I'm using DoT through IPv6 DNS servers without issues.

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    You may also fix the issue by using their IPv4 DNS server instead of their IPv6 DNS server. The routing issue is probably not happening on both.

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    I don't doubt you. Like I said, the other provider has an anycast routing problem with their IPv6 IP's. They will need to fix it or have their provider/carrier fix it.

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    Just for grins, can you give me the DNS server you are using that's giving you the wrong IP and also give me the host that is being looked up and IP that it returns?

    Dual Stack home network pros and cons

    I have yet to experience a negative performance impact since I enabled IPv6 on my AC5300. If anything, performance has improved. I do on occasion have a similar issue with DNS, but like I said, its an anycast issue with my DNS provider that they have to fix. One day their IPv6 servers have...
