      my isp (otenet.gr) offers dual stack and i read that on some router modem (hawei,zte) it works with slaac and i fritz! it uses dhcp6.
      When i try dhcp6, my wan interface shows as a ipv6 address fe80::xxx%re1 with mac address of the ethernet that connects to my adsl modem.
      when i try slaac, my wan interface shows no ipv6 address.

      My Diagnostics: Routing tables for my ipv6 is

      [b]shouldnt my wan address be 2a02:580:31b:0(mac lan eth)?
      
      any hints on what i change to make it work properly?</performnud,accept_rtadv></up,pointopoint,running,noarp,simplex,multicast>

        fe80:: is link-local. Not sure what you read but your ISP does not seem to deliver any IPv6 whatsoever no matter what.

          hmm wierd, because from shell i can ping and traceroute ipv6 addresses.
          My pppoe0 has an ipv6 address starting with 2a02:580:31b: but pfsense instead reads the local-link one.
          My routing table contains the ipv6 prefix but it seems to be ignored.

          i do have ipv6 connectivity from shell but cant manage thru pfsense or doesnt get recognized properly.

            Ok i guess ill give more info to see troubleshoot the problem. My setup is re0 is my local lan ethernet and re1 is my connection to my adsl modem.
            I use PPPoE  on my wan(re1) interface. From what i managed to check so far is that instead of checking pppoe0 interface for my ipv6 address it checks re1.
            Maybe i understood wrong when i was selecting re1 as my wan interface? Should i have checked pppoe0? But its not created till i logging thru pppoe so it cant be.
            Maybe my set up is not supported for ipv6? And my re1 should have access to ipv6? i.e. I turn my modem back again to a router, it gets an ipv6 address and re1 gets an ipv6 address and everything works?
