Super Hub has updated and killed my network

[nickharper]

It looks as if my Superhub has updated it's self recently. However it now means that things on my network aren't working and inter device communication doesn't seem to work.

I have tried compatibility mode but one device that's on wifi can no longer talk to another that's on wifi. A wired computer can connect to the device.

Everything looks to have IPV6 enabled now and trying to route all DNS through the superhub rather than through Google like I used before.

I cant even ping between some devices but I can from others to others. It's definitely the wifi / superhub that is the issue. 

Anybody else had issues?

If I reboot the superhub, everything works for about 2 or 3 minutes and then traffic is lost, nothing can ping, everything looks to be blocked.

I don't really want to have to buy my own access point just to prove it is an issue with the superhub but working in IT, I know it is and I cant see anything that could be causing it.

Disable IPv6. Vodafone's implementation has caused similar problems for others.

Thanks, this is already disabled as that broke my work VPN. I disabled this in the DHCP settings, should I disable it for WAN also?

I think you should. Worth a try at least.

I’m having the exact same issue. I recently ordered and set up a new super wifi 6 wifi booster, however I had to factory reset my wifi hub so it could install the latest updates. Since then, my devices are constantly dropping and/or not receiving internet connection. Devices say great signal is being received and the wifi is fine however it clearly isn’t. I can’t even do a speed test on it (apart from via direct Ethernet connection).

I got in using Ethernet, completely disabled IPV6.

I also made sure I wasn't using the vodafone security thing (can't remember the name off the top of my head) as that was causing issues too.

It does seem quite stable at the minute but I don't want to jinx it, I do still get some weird DNS issues sometimes on machines using DHCP to get the DNS server but it works fine on my laptop with static DNS set.....
