Hi guys,

Fibre business internet connection with a supplied static ipv6 address and ipv6 gateway.

I have entered the info and all seems to be up and running with my global and link addresses, however, i cannot seem to access the ipv6 net from any device on my lan.

Current IPv6 LAN set up is ULA Off, Stateless, DHCPv6 server on with auto range.

Also, i do not have any IPv6 handed out in the DHCPv6 assignment table, but i have some IPv6 neighbours in that table.

If i ping Goggles IPv6 i think i get a response?

Packets: Sent = 5, Received = 5, Lost = 0 (0% loss)

Also, i do seem to have IPv6 DNS entries as well, so all in all, i'm a bit confused.

Anything i should be looking at changing or configuring that i may have missed?

Would it be ISP issues?

Thanks

I didn't get static addresses working and used prefix delegation instead. Is this an option with a static address from your ISP?

Did you ping google from the 2862, or from a PC?

Could you post output from Diagnostics/IPv6 neighbour table?
You don't say what type of device you are connecting, but from one of them something equivalent to Linux "ip -6 address show" might help.

Hi Richard, and thanks for you post.

My ISP is actually handing out a static IPV6 IP & gateway and the router is set up as such.

However. i did try using the DHCPv6 CLient setting, and that seemed to pull in an IP from the ISP as well, but still no luck.

So, with that, i am assuming it is a local issue?

This is my current IPv6 neighbour table...

However, since this morning, the router in not showing any DNS queries at all, for v4 & v6 as both are empty.

In my Wan V6 page, i have a global ISP v6 address and my link address as expected.

I am using a Macbook pro, and is in my network settings it is indeed showing the router v6 address and has 4 x IPv6 address available.

If i ping ipv6.google.com from the 2862 ping tester i get..

Pinging ipv6.google.com with 64 bytes of Data:

However, it i perform a traceroute6 from the 2862 i get..

However, if i try to ping6 the router from my MBP i get...

ping6: sendmsg: No route to host
ping6: wrote fe80::21d:aaff:fe12:3b10 16 chars, ret=-1
ping6: sendmsg: No route to host

ping6: wrote fe80::21d:aaff:fe12:3b10 16 chars, ret=-1
ping6: sendmsg: No route to host

Lastly, i do not have a PC with functioning ipv6 for me to use to test as we are all an Apple household.

Interestingly, the last ISP had IPv6 available via PPPoE and worked flawlessly!

In neighbour table on the LAN side you only have link local addresses, so the Apple computers are presumably not getting a global IPv6 address. Sorry I am not familiar with Apple, so I don't know why.

Ok thanks.

Anyone else help?

I have a windows 10 pc, and that cant get out either.

I spoke to Draytek support who did sopt a missing ip in the lan side of the IPV6 page, but still cannot get access out.

I can traceroute6 IPV6.google.com and ping it from the router, but cannot from any LAN device.
