Windows 10: IPV6 connectivity lost in windows 10 after shutdown "problem fixed"

After trying all the suggested options to solve the loss of IPV6 connectivity I was messing around and found a little known setting in device management/network adapter/advanced settings/power management that allows the system to turn the device off to save power....TURN THAT OFF....I haven't had the loss of IPV6 connectivity since

IPV6 connectivity problems


Are there any people around here with IPV6 experience? I've got a Fritzbox 7490 and my provider supports IPV6 by a 6RD tunnel. I'm pretty sure that the connection to the provider works since the Fritzbox web interface shows IPV6 as "connected" and it also shows an address and a prefix. But no IPV6 addresses are assigned to clients (Windows 10 Pro 64 bit and Linux Mint 17.2 64 bit VM) and I can neither ping nor trace anything using the IPV6 protocol (makes no difference if I try on the Windows host or the VM). Ipconfig on the host shows no IPV6 address and ifconfig on the VM leads to the same result. Anybody got an idea why?
