Ipv6 xfinity speedtest2/29/2024 This back and forth is useless and buries solutions waaaay to deep, so I will simply say I'm sorry if I offended you. And yes, the settings would have helped me and they did. Then you reposted the Xfinity article, which I had read the first time. I put that article in there to illustrate how AEBs from as long ago as 2013 on 7.6.3 didn't play well with IPv6 - thus necessitating people to tunnel. It's just a frame of reference for how Apple might be at fault too. And I think my problem with you is when you said " The article that you reference does not use the settings that Comcast and Time Warner recommend." This article doesn't because it comes way before it and was not meant to provide anyone here a solution. I reread the previous messages, or at least the ones after my comment. BTW - Ive read about others with Non Apple routers chasing something similar.Īlright, I will take the high road here, Bob. From my perspective both camps think its the other's problem. So the question is - does anybody know for sure whats going on or who is really working on this. From experience I dont think its really an IPV6 compaibility issue, but how the router responds to some sort of reset signal/test signal that the service does in the early morning. But there was a temporary fix - and that was to turn off iPv6 on the airport extreme (more precisely (internet > Internet Options > Configure Ipv6 : Link-Local Only).įor now this seemed to stop the overnight drop that seems to happen between 12:00 AM and 2:00 AM. I persisted and eventually got to Apple support and indeed they knew of the problem and said Cox was working on it. Unfortunalely the number they gave was no longer valid. They said Apple was working on it and gave me a number to call at apple router support. I thought about replacing the Airport Extreme (as I read others had done in a similar situation to no avail).Īfter much frustration, I started to search for Airport Extreme and DNS and found similar tales.Īfter several unproductive calls with Cox Internet first tier support, I finally reached a tier who acknowledged that Cox was rolling out IPv6 and was having a problem with Airport Extreme Routers. Each time things seemed to work for a while. They came out and replaced the hookups, I I had to buy a new cable modem and replaced a digital switch. We called Cox several times, and they performed the usual reset of router and modem and things seem to work for a while. I have Cox Cable High Speed Internet at several locations using an Airport Extreme 3GB connected as a router to the Cox cable modem.įor more than a week we would regularly find in the morning that the outside connection to the internet DNS servers were lost. This is a notification to others as well as a question:
