Re: V6 on the TG589 v3

Ok will give it some further thought. We definitely need to get the prefix delegation request in the Requested options section then your clients (and router LAN interface) will be able to create globally unique IPv6 addresses and you should be away. DNS server details would be useful too although these could be set manually, or used over IPv4 for now, so they're not as important.
Incidentally, do try a full ppp reconnection as there could be a risk that the old DHCPv6 state is persisting despite the new config.

Back.
OK dropped the ppp and reconnected same results.
Would a reset be useful?

Re: V6 on the TG589 v3

Given I don't fully know what the problem is I couldn't say it won't so it might be worth a shot, particularly if you might've been trying a variety of commands along the way.
Certainly without DHCPv6 asking for a PD it won't get one, and without that the full IPv6 connectivity won't be achieved so that's where the focus has to sit.

Now NO ipv6 shown on the ppp page.

Re: V6 on the TG589 v3

You need to at least reenable IPCPv6 on PPP:
ppp ifdetach intf=Internet
ppp ifconfig ipv6=enabled intf=Internet
ppp ifattach intf=Internet
saveall

This will enable the creation of a link-local address for the router and a default gateway.
After that should come the delegation of a prefix for clients using DHCPv6, which the following should provide (if required):
dhcp clientv6 ifdetach intf=Internet
dhcp clientv6 ifconfig intf=Internet listenra=enabled stateless=disabled rapidcommit=disabled leasetime=7200 irt=86400 iana=1 iapd=1 duidtype=duid-llt leasehist=enabled
dhcp clientv6 ifattach intf=Internet

Re: V6 on the TG589 v3

I'm back home now and can check my config. Here it is edited to suit your setup (i.e. with your DUID) and top-and-tailed to work as is - you could try a copy-and-paste and see if it helps:
dhcp ifdetach intf=Internet
dhcp clientv6 ifconfig intf=Internet listenra=enabled raflagslifetime=1800 stateless=disabled rapidcommit=disabled leasetime=7200 irt=86400 iana=0 iapd=1 duidtype=duid-llt leasehist=enabled dnsmetric=10 qoslabel=Management
dhcp clientv6 oro add intf=Internet option=domain-name-servers required=disabled
dhcp clientv6 oro add intf=Internet option=ia-prefix-delegation required=disabled
dhcp clientv6 txoptions add intf=Internet option=client-identifier value=00:01:00:14:18:7a:dd:c7:a4:b1:e9:98:14:2e
dhcp ifattach intf=Internet

So I now have an ipv6 dns.
Will drop the dhcp on this pc in a mo and see if I have an ipv6 address.

If you mean what I think you do there's no need for that - being dual stacked means that you can have both an IPv4 and an IPv6 address on the PC. The OS, and most apps, will default to preferring IPv6 transport and so you should see it take effect immediately. This site is a good first point of call as it'll exercise both transports simultaneously (and DNS too).

Re: V6 on the TG589 v3

OK just rebooted anyway.
Still cant get any ipv6 info on the sites they just display you are connecting via ipv4.
Quote
You are connecting to this server via IPv4, your address being 81.174.x.y
It's time to step up to IPv6!
If you can't get native IPv6 transport from your ISP, please check into using a tunnel broker.  Click here to find a list of tunnel brokers.

From that site:
Quote
Your IPv4 address on the public Internet appears to be 81.174.x.y
Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) appears to be PLUSNET PlusNet PLC
No IPv6 address detected [more info]
Good news! Your current configuration will continue to work as web sites enable IPv6.
You appear to be able to browse the IPv4 Internet only. You will not be able to reach IPv6-only sites.
Your DNS server (possibly run by your ISP) appears to have no access to the IPv6 Internet, or is not configured to use it. This may in the future restrict your ability to reach IPv6-only sites

Re: V6 on the TG589 v3

Are you able to ping the DNS server (or other IPv6 address) from the router? (ping proto=ip addr=2001:470:20::2)

Re: V6 on the TG589 v3

What do you get from dhcp clientv6 iflist expand=enabled?
I really would stay away from the router's GUI tests/checks. I know it's easier to use them but there is a high liklihood of being misled given that the IPv6 support in the GUI is extremely limited and we (I) do not fully know what/how it does what it does.
