Description:    Ubuntu 14.10
Release:        14.10

network-manager:
  Installato: 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu28
  Candidato:  0.9.8.8-0ubuntu28
  Tabella versione:
 *** 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu28 0
        500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ utopic/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Expected behaviour:
permanent and temporary IPv6 are renewed when necessary

Observed behaviour:
Every so often, the system loses its temporary IPv6 addresses and is left with the main address alone. In this situation, sites such as Google (which already prefers IPv6 if available) will stall.
Workaround is to disconnect/reconnect wifi to obtain new temporary addresses.
There seems to be no interesting message in the router log (using OpenWRT 14.07)
