Hi everyone,
I’m hoping to get some help with my issues above, Over the last month or two I received a new router from Sky, their 4.2 router as part of their Wi-Fi guarantee service, however I’ve noticed that I’ve been experiencing issues when working from home that from time to time I get issues with not being able to access the internet despite the router saying it’s connected to the internet.
After a bit of digging in the syslog I found that the WAN IPv6 address keeps refreshing every 10-30 mins, and also looks to be causing the IPv4 address to refresh as well.

I plugged my old flat Sky router in out of curiosity and had no issues, the only time the external WAN refreshed was around once a week. I’ve had the router replaced by their customer services and still getting the same fault, I’m not sure what else to do.
