I am a bit confused. I have an 8800NL which I now use on BT Internet having shifted from PlusNet.
I have enabled IPv6 ( I think?) using the instructions and pictures elsewhere in the forum and if I use http://test-ipv6.com/ It gives me 10/10 for readiness and shows a public IPv6 address (see below). All my attached devices get IPv6 addresses.
However on the status page of the router, the line Default IPv6 Gateway / IPv6 Address is blank. I have restarted the router to no avail. My questions
a) Do I have IPv6 connectivity or not
b)If yes, why doesn't the address show up on the status page.
c)How else might I test my ipv6 connection - all the tests at test-ipv6 show as positive
d)What might I be doing wrong in the configuration. to produce these results
Thanks in advance

It shows on the status page as 'LAN IPv6 Address'
You can only test it with a website
You are doing nothing wrong, its working fine
