The only issue I have is that despite having a WAN IPv4 address for the life of me I can’t get a WAN IPv6 address. The IPv6 Gateway / IPv6 Address remains stubbornly empty and none of the devices I have connected receive an IPv6 address. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I've since reconnected my Sky Q Hub and due to all the disconnects whilst I was messing about I'm now on a 9dB profile and down 14Mbps so I'm going to wait for things to return to normal before trying again.

In the meantime, my intention is to use the 8800NL R2 to provide the internet connection only and plug a Google Wifi in to provide the connection to all my devices. Assuming your suggestion works will it provide the Google Wifi with access to IPv6 both internally and externally or will it be restricted to IPv4?

Thanks.

My laptop connected directly to the router now gets an IPv6 address and everything seems to work. However, adding the Google Wifi into the mix kills IPv6. It doesn't get an IPv6 address and nothing connected to it does either. Can you think of anything else I should look at?

Thanks.
