Just got Gen5, new router is losing internet over and over again.

Hrm, you may want to look into using the Parental controls in the modem to limit things, along with Norton DNS... It's not that the DNS settings are being bypassed, it's that OpenDNS depends on knowing what IP you are behind... Sadly, we aren't given a publicly routable IPv4 address and things such as OpenDNS don't usually work well.
If you know a little bit about FreeBSD and the such... I would urge you to look into setting PFSense + Squid + SquidGuard up on your network as a local firewall/proxy. Some pretty powerful stuff once you get the hang of it.
Don't mess with the IPv6 setting...
As far as those error logs, they can pretty much be ignored. The unit doesn't know the time/date untill after it has contacted the NOC, if it's somewhat freshly rebooted it could be showing old information. The other errors I can't explain, I get them as well but performance seems fine? It's probably something similar to other wireless routers where it logs any little hiccup that doesn't always matter.
But yeah, don't mess with the IPv6 settings... Leave them enabled on the modem, otherwise this will happen... "I did notice while troubleshooting that for a little bit my computer would get the external IP of the device, then switch to the private lan address."
That aside... does the system still seem stable and working right? If not, Liz will have to run diagnostics on your terminal when she pops into the office tomorrow.
