      @sfigueroa said in my DHCP6 is up but not detected:

      Yes that is the release that I have.

      Here's what my dhcp6 client shows:

      b201e567-015b-487e-a058-a89b44d00915-image.png

      That setting isn't there.

      It's here:

      So, if you have that Do not allow PD/Address release setting on the dhcp6 client config, you have a really strange system.

          Then there is definitely something wrong there. That setting was moved with 2.7.0.

              @JKnott So you're saying that, I should be seeing that option UNDER the dhcp option and not networking,

                What I'm saying is you should not be seeing it where you are. I showed you where it's supposed to be for 2.7.0. There is something seriously wrong with your system. I'd recommend reinstalling and starting from scratch. Then, accurately describe what you have for an Internet connection, so we know what we're dealing with. And don't go poking around where you have no idea what you're doing.

                          Glad to hear it's working, but I still have no idea why that setting is where it is. Maybe someone else knows.

                              So do I. That setting moved earlier with the other version.
