      My current pfsense utilizes IPv4. When my ISP started including DHP6 in their connection, I lost connectivity to my pfsense and the internet. Tried reinstalling 3x then later on pfsense would locked me out. It seems the fiber modem refuses to add another device. In this case pfsense router. Is there a way to convert my IPv4 config file to IPv6 so I could just switch it seamlessly through "Config Restore" option?

        ????

        If if was connected before, why is it now a "new" device? Regardless, one trick is to power down the modem for a minute or so and then try connecting.

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