      Yup same here - I fired up m0n0wall, bing bang zoom everything working for ipv6.  Now with pfsense if you do get an address its only there for a very short time.

      I would think this should be a high priority issue - is there just something odd with the way comcast is going it that pfsense does not like?  Or is this an issue across the board with other native ipv6 providers?

      But I have to say that ipv6 is currently broken in pfsense.

      DHCPv6+PD may be broken, but that is not true of "ipv6" in general. My ALIX has a completely different issue in that it refuses to get DHCPv6+PD at bootup, but if I edit/save/apply the WAN, it comes up and stays up indefinitely. It gets DHCPv6+PD from my "main" home router, though, not an ISP.

      My main home router does IPv6 via HE.net tunnels and it works fine.

        same here - but my ISP is RCS & RDS Romania - one of the biggest IPv6 ISP and no.1 in Ro - nationwide availability

          Unfortunately, for me it's more or less the same.
          But even the first offer is not accepted.

          Normally the link local address is used to aquire a lease.
          I have a virtual IPv6 address that is used by haproxy to hide multiple servers behind a single IPv6 address.
          now the DHCP6 client uses this ip as the interface IP so every offer is rejected with a XID mismatch.

          When I remove the virtual IP the initial lease is accepted but when the lease is expired the renew is denied.

            Interesting… I'm on Comcast, and my 2.1-RC0 box (June 4 snapshot) passed the four-day uptime mark today without losing IPv6 connectivity (and with rc.newwanip6 entries in the system log earlier today). Could this issue have been resolved?

              I am still having issues..  Maybe I will try a clean install?

              So I get a ipv6 global and link local on wan..  But not seeing anything on lan side..  I have tried resetting back to none none for wan and lan, then back to dhcp6 and track..  I have rebooted, etc.  Seems like some progress was having issues grabbing global ipv6 on the wan before, etc.

                I'm on Concast, and was unable to get it to work on beta versions.  I upgraded to the RC0 dated June 8 Saturday and it's been up and running since.  Hasn't been 4 days yet so I don't know if it will stick. Not sure if it's fixed but it's working for the 1st time.  I had been running M0n0wall because of the problems.

                  I have put some more fixes for radvd wrong config error.
                  Please try a today snapshot.

                    Nope.  I did a fresh install of …

                    2.1-RC0 (amd64)
                    built on Tue Jun 11 06:04:26 EDT 2013
                    FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE-p8

                    ...  The 1st time it booted, it successfully got IPv6 addressing.  I let it run a couple of hours and rebooted.  Now there is nothing I can do to get it to pull IPv6 addressing again.

                    dhcp6c[68545]: dhcp6_ctl_authinit: failed to open /usr/local/etc/dhcp6cctlkey: No such file or directory
                    dhcp6c[68545]: client6_init: failed initialize control message authentication
                    dhcp6c[68545]: client6_init: skip opening control port

                    Also, radvd doesn't even show up as a stopped service, it does not appear on the services screen.

                      I tried the update from today and it broke the working IPv6.

                        I'm on comcast service. Zoom Modem is IPv6 enabled. PFsense, well can't keep a ipv6 address.

                        I'll stay at the latest beta that I have and update when there's a consensus that the IPv6 is working again.

                          Back on May 9th, I did a clean install of this version

                          2.1-BETA1 (i386)
                          built on Thu May 9 07:05:02 EDT 2013
                          FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE-p8

                          I was able to have IPv6 work for around 4 days before the lease from Comcast's DHCP servers renewed.

                          After that point, I was not able to get IPv6 working again.

                          What's interesting is if I do a full clean install, I still cannot get it to work. Its almost like something is left behind in some configuration somewhere that a full install does not remove.

                          I am looking to download and install the latest beta build, but wondering if the problem has been fixed yet.  So, if someone has installed a newer build with some success, please pass that on.

                            See my 6/10 post; I've had IPv6 connectivity on Comcast for more than four days straight with the June 4 snapshot. Haven't stayed on any one revision for long enough since.

                              If you would like to do an experiment ….  reboot pfSense and see if it gets IPv6 addressing again.

                              If I build a fresh install, it works exactly once.  If I reboot, it will not pull addressing again.

                                Done. Seems to get both a WAN and a LAN address just fine. (Ditto after firmware updates.)

                                  I installed the built on Wed Jun 12 17:13:09 EDT 2013 update and it seems to be working so far.

                                    Can anybody confirm that when a renewal is not done either 2 dhcp6c processes are running or there is no default gw for v6?

                                      I've seen a few posts here in the last few days that give the impression that builds after 06/10 appear to fix the issues at hand.

                                      Before I go and download the latest beta build, I would like a bit more feedback from those that have, and if they got IPv6 working or not.

                                      A few people here, and also on the Comcast forum over at Broadbandreports.com have suggested moving to m0n0wall.  I really don't want to do that as I am very happy with pfSense.  I would rather stay with that product, as it does everything that I need it to do.

                                      Thanks!

                                        In a previous post, I mentioned that I was able to get IPV6 addressing once and then after a reboot, it was unable to get anything.  Always with the following logging:

                                        dhcp6c[68545]: dhcp6_ctl_authinit: failed to open /usr/local/etc/dhcp6cctlkey: No such file or directory

                                        dhcp6c[68545]: client6_init: skip opening control port

                                        … with the current build I'm running, I rebooted twice and it was ok.  So, stay tuned ...

                                          Today I tried to do some debugging.

                                          What I found is that the DHCP process itself looks ok and also the PD is working.
                                          But during the process the route command isn't found

                                          During renewal an XID mismatch is generated.

                                            @ermal:

                                            Can anybody confirm that when a renewal is not done either 2 dhcp6c processes are running or there is no default gw for v6?

                                            At the time the 4 day lease expired, all IPv6 addressing went away.

                                            There is no dhcp6c process running:
