IPv6 Problems

I am on a Plusnet trial for IPv6 but it won't work. All the settings are correct but tests reveal that IPv6 isn't working. Yesterday, I could get it to work thanks to a workaround by PeteB, but now that isn't working either.

As you can see, all the settings are there but IPv6 isn't working.

hi arobertson676

What firmware version are you on?

It seems on the status page you posted there is no IPv6 address, have you tried a restart?

Normally below the IPv4 address there should be listed a ipv6 address (firmware 1.06e).

Also firmware version 1.06f is being released soon, I would suggest trying firmware 1.06f when released and see if you have the same issue.

1.06d. I have tried 1.06e, 1.06f (from the AU site) and it hasn't made any difference.

Restarting doesn't help.

I have been discussing this with the OP, trying to see if it is the same problem that I have with IPv6 on Plusnet and the 7800N. We seem to have the same problem although I stand to be corrected on this.

I have an earlier post regarding this issue, I still have an open ticket (#OPY-903-62647) with Billion support.
Been open for months, not chased it up in a long time.
Hoping with each new firmware that is released the problem is fixed, no joy so far. Tried 1.06f from the Aussie site but not fixed so have reverted back to the UK 1.06e and am waiting for 1.06f from the UK. Not holding out much hope though.
