I've got an unstable connection

My internet is really unstable, I've got an Red Internet & Phone 1000 contract with Vodafone, but ever since I got the router delivered, my internet is unusable. I'm having problems with slow speeds, ping spikes, packet loss, and router randomly losing connection for 5-10 minutes every couple hours. I tried to reach helpline, but I was told they can only speak German, and mine is not good enough to understand, so I was told to write here.

Hello WooCash95,

the error here is a return path interferer. It is an interference signal on the line. We are on it. I have recorded a ticket so you will be informed about the completion.

I can see in "Mein Störungsticket that a new ticket has been made, but it turned into exactly the same ticket that was made last month, then my case was closed and I didn't get the help I needed.

 

Today my connection dropped about 10 times in a span of a day, internet is completely unusable and I had problems getting help, because when signing the contract some person at Vodafone put different date of birth than the one I have in my passport, so they had problems confirming my indentity. I feel really dissapointed and in shock how incompetent so far Vodafone is, if my case is not going to get fixed I'll have to make a complaint with Bundesnetzagentur or how you say in German "Beschwerde bei der Bundesnetzagentur".

 

I read on the internet that for many people switching routers from ipv6 to ipv4 helps, so if possible please switch my router to ipv4 as well
