Still getting pending on the DHCP6 Gateway.
What happens if you disable gateway monitoring for IPv6?

Well, you obviously have a problem with how the monitor is configured,but I don't know how at the moment. Regardless, don't worry about it, as for most users it's not used. All I can say is use the default, if it works or plug in an address you know works.
Anyway, you appear to be up & running with IPv6.

I think you're correct. Would it help removing and adding it back in?
Thanks again for all your time and putting up with me.

As I mentioned, you don't have to put anything in, provided the gateway can be pinged. It's only when it doesn't that you have to provide some other address.

That could be due to what you're pinging. While you can ping a link local address, your ISP might not have configured it to respond.
He was clearly (trying) pinging googles dns server. Maybe you should enable pictures for the forum to see them (if you are able).

Sorry, but can you please explain what you mean by this?

What pictures are you talking about? I already included examples of me doing it.

Given the pictures are already there, what would it accomplish to provide more? I often post pictures when I think it would help.
