hmm ipv6 not working in my new house through the amplifi alien router (it worked on the same cable provider in the old house)

@annika did you get this resolved? I use ipv6 everywhere, so I've debugged it in a router or two, here or there: let me know if I can offer any assistance

@eigen I haven't figured this one out yet. The router/modem from my ISP can ping an ipv6 host, and it's assigning an ipv6 address to the Alien router. I don't think that router has a ping tool. It's assigning ipv6 addresses to clients (as it did at my other location) but those clients can't ping ipv6 domains or ips

@annika
sorry for Wall of Questions:

can the client ping the ipv6 address on the Alien router?

how much do the ipv6s addresses on ISP router, Alien router, and clients overlap? the first 4 (or more) "hextets" should match

on Alien: A. is dhcpv6 is selected (and not 6to4); B. is there any mention of a delegated prefix. C. is there a list of ipv6 clients, and are clients-machines listed w/ v6 addrs?

can you check in the ISP router if it's still configured A. to allow ipv6 to clients; B. to serve dhcpv6 C. any mention of a delegated prefix D. are end client machines listed anywhere (as dhcpv6 clients)?

if your machine is connected directly to the ISP router (bypassing the Alien) does ipv6 work? if so, can it (or the ISP router) ping the Alien router's IPv6 address?

Assuming you have at least 2 machines behind the Alien router, can they ping each other? both the fe80:: link-local addresses, as well as the dhcpv6 assigned addresses?

Does either router have an ipv6 firewall turned on to deny traffic?
