      Is there an easy solution for pfSense and Cloudflare, that only the prefix gets updated?

        I thought you said, in the DHCP & DNS area, that your prefix didn't change. Why are you still worried about using a dynamic DNS? Can you not just create the AAAA records?

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

            In that other thread, I mentioned the settting "Do not allow PD/Address release", on the WAN page. Is that selected? I didn't see you mention that anywhere.

              I have Comcast and Godaddy and have tried the setting "Do not allow PD/Address release". It may produce unexpected results, I think I had issues with my windows 10 PC failing to get a GUA IPv6. I can't be completely sure yet what the problem was, I would merely caution to do a proper experiment changing only this setting to confirm behavior.

                One has nothing to do with the other. The do not release only affects whether the prefix will change. SLAAC has to do with sending the prefix out to the LAN, whether it changes or not.
