      I have a strange problem with OpenVPN over IPv6. If I connect the VPN over IPv4, it works fine. However, if I connect over IPv6, I get strange issues. For example, I can connect to google or YouTube, but not test-ipv6. I have no idea how connecting IPv6 should be any different than over IPv4.

      Any ideas?

      Also, when I connect over IPv4, via my cell phone, 464XLAT kicks in, to connect to the IPv4 address. Wireshark on my notebook computer shows IPv6 addresses for both ends, but Packet Capture on pfSense shows IPv4 addresses. That really had me going until I remembered about 464XLAT. 😉

      PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
      i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
      UniFi AC-Lite access point

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

        @JKnott One other thing, it works fine with IPv6 over my LAN.
