I'm not able to find any newer thread about this topic then this one:</p>
<p dir="auto">Re: <a href="/topic/153404/wan_dhcp6-stuck-pending-unknown">WAN_DHCP6 Stuck Pending / Unknown</a></p>
<p dir="auto">I updated from 2.4.5 to 2.5 and all is great...only the gateway shows Pending.<br />
If I manually add a monitoring ip (like some for Cloudflare) it works. But then its not monitoring and showing my ip.<br />
In the dhcp log I got this for dhcpv6:</p>
