Check to make sure that radvd is still working, I have seen that crash.
If you reboot, it takes a little while for the router advertisements to be pass along through ipv6.
When was the last time you noticed it was working...
Yep I am getting the prefix delegation from the ISP. My router receives the IPv6, the only thing is happening is that downstream is not. I am using the DNSMasq for the radvd with the configuration I posted on the first post and disabled on the IPv6 tab page as requested to work with DNSMasq.
I noticed like 1 month ago. Waited for a while and it didn't get back. I made a backup, reinstalled the firmware and pulled the backup config. And even though remains not allocating to the clients....
Well, dnsmasq doesn't handle the IPv6 on DD-WRT, that is something completely separate if I am not mistaken.
Yes you are mistaken. DNSMasq will handout IPv6 to clients when the ISP has given the IPv6 configured to your Gateway Router.
As Wildlion said, "If you reboot, it takes a little while for the router advertisements to be pass along through ipv6."
I have been with my ISP for a number of years and I would get an IPv6 address on the Gateway Router within a few minutes. But from the being of the Year when I reboot my Gateway Router it now takes 20min to over 4 hours to get the IPv6 configuration from the ISP.
I would reboot the router and wait a fill day (24hours), if still no IPv6 you will need to research on what your ISP has changed. _________________ Home Network on Telus 1Gb PureFibre - 10GbE Copper Backbone

that delay is what annoys me some about using IPv6 because I did not want to have a short power drop out or update the router and then have to wait a full day to get back on the net... so I have played with it or select my own and then annoy the ISP until it gets passed out automatically to the full network.
I will actually NAT IPv6 just to make it work faster...
I run "dhcp6c eth0" and the address arrives instantly.
I rebooted the gateway R7800 and ran the command and it gave me 2 instances of dhcp6c and no IPv6. Ran "killall dhcp6c" and ran the original command "dhcp6c -c /tmp/dhcp6c.conf -T LL eth0"
I just have wait "X" hours to get IPv6 back... It's an ISP issue. _________________ Home Network on Telus 1Gb PureFibre - 10GbE Copper Backbone
