Seeing significant issues with IPv6. After some time, IPv6 completely seems
to stop working. IPv4 is unaffected.

Re-connecting to wifi seems to restore IPv6 connectivity.

However, various things (ssh, firefox) stop working completely. Open ssh
sessions "freeze". Web page requests time out.

At the same time, I can access IPv6 resources from other machines which do
not run NetworkManager.

Next time this occurs, I hope to have some time to diagnose this problem
further. In the meantime, is anyone else seeing such breaking wrt IPv6?

Something to note, I run numerous servers with IPv6, both physical and
virtual. These servers run CentOS; None run NetworkManager, and all have
working IPv6 connectivity.

I have been seeing similar issues with NM on IPv4 with an Intel 4965 wifi chipset.
It got so bad on F17 that I installed an Asus N-10 rtl8712u based USB stick.
SAME PROBLEM over the last two days attempting to install F20 and actually get it to work (KDE problems). The nm=applet would notify me that it was disconnected, but on opening the applet, it would show it was still connected BUT there was actually no connection. Sometimes I can get it to re-connect: about 30% of the time.

IF I can get F20 installed, I will disable NM and move to wicd which seems to work.
