Does anyone else have issues with IPv6? Ever since they launched it a few years ago, i seem to loose my IP at the end of the lease and it comes back about an hour after renewing the lease. This is with a few different modem models over the years as well too. It seems they don't assign an IPv6 address for the first hour or so of resetting the modem. Eventually I get one, but like I said it drops and takes forever to come back at the end of the lease to renew.
When I do a manual release/renew from an SSH/Telnet console on my Cisco router, it takes about an hour before Cox hands me another or the same IPv6, but with IPv4 it's instant like it should be.
