IPV6 Address support. No connectivity.

in Connectivity

My router ( Unifi PRO MAX ) shows it is assigned a IPV6 address by spectrum, comcast etc, an IPV6 Prefix, IPV6 Link Local in the WAN system as well as the IPv4 address typical since forever.

The problem is I can't get out via IPV6, pings to any IPV6 and DHCP is not doing anything via spectrum.

No IPv6 address detected

This is the result of test-ipv6.com and any other site.

Is a manual configuration needed if if so is there somewhere this information is posted for use?

Or, is this relatively new and DHCP is not enabled yet by either my modem or the servers?

Do I need a new passthrough Modem?

    Re-up/re-apply router IPv6 detect/config in order to hopefully establish both private IPv6 on LAN as well as public IPv6 on WAN.

    Re-UP? I dont know what you mean here. If I make a change in this router WAN configuration, it makes the change real time. I dont need to UP or DOWN it's status. I have even re-started the modem….

    Restart the router and/or do whatever else you can to get it show its LAN IPv6 address as well as its WAN IPv6 address and then restart the client device if needs be.

    So I found what the issue was. It was on my router's network config settings. IPV6 was not enabled for the network. After enabling it IPV6 is working like a champ.
