      Anyone know the correct settings for getting IPV6 working on multipal LAN interfaces (multipal Prefixes) when using ATT Fiber bypassing the gateway? the instructions are not working or not complete. IPV4 works. I can see the DHCP6 request on the WAN interface and response with a prefix, but it is not getting applies or not working on PFSense.

          While I don't know the settings, and AT&T seems to pride themselves on not sharing such basic information to their customers, I can tell you that I've never seen pfsense pick up the IPv6 properly without the 'send IPv6 prefix hint' box checked.
          After that it shouldn't take too long to just brute force it from 64, 56, or 48.

            @jmmm Were you ever able to solve your IPv6 issues while bypassing the ATT modem? I followed the pfSense recipe. IPv4 works great, but IPv6 devices cannot access DNS nor can the pfSense instance access the Netgate servers for updates and packages.
