vpn dropping repeatedly

I recently upgraded to gigabit ethernet and received a new modem. Ever since then my work VPN drops repeatedly. I see many messages on router logs about "FW.IPv6 INPUT drop , 18969 Attempts" and  

"DHCPv6[8212]: 72001011-DHCPv6 - Missing Required Option 82"

I am a programmer who has to have this VPN working. Right now it is completely unusable.

How does one get an actual human being to help with this problem?

I DM'ed support, they asked me for information, then waited for 10 minutes for a reply. Didn't get any other messages so I left the site.
