[IPv6] IPv6 Broken on TC8305C

Comcast just replaced all of the modems in my apartment complex with Technicolor TC8305Cs. Unfortunately it seems that the IPv6 functionality is disabled on mine, is anyone else seeing this result? It has version 01.E6.01.22.15.

First the bad news - IPv6 capability is currently disabled on the TC8305C until they get a new firmware release for it: »Re: [IPv6] No IPV6 TC8305C & RT-68U

Now the good news:

Yes, new release just finished certification. It will be soaked without IPv6 first, then slowly IPv6 will be enabled.

I would say it will be early May before IPv6 hits fully in production for TC8305C.

So I started getting IPv6 last night, and now the modem crashes after it's been on for 5 minutes. Fantastic.

Unfortunaly that gateway has a very poor reputation in fact one of the worse that Comcast hands out here is a thread from the Comcast forums of many many problems with this device.

Yep, and seems they don't want to waste them, so they don't seem to want to replace them with anything else when you get stuck with one.

We might just be lucky but our TC8305C has been very good. I am pretty certain it was brand new when we got it almost a year ago. Not seeing IPv6 on ours though.
