Unable to communicate with https://packages.pfsense.org.

But those VLANs have the same subnet, no?

I have had great success with a /48 for WAN and handing out /64s on all interfaces, including openvpn interfaces.
I do want to experiment with something like a /52 on the WAN and handing out a limited number of /64s after. (tried before and failed)
Why? Because some data centers for some odd reason are still hesitant to hand me a /48. Maybe all they have is a /48 themselves?
I know thats a crap configuration, but it would solve problems for me also to get that to work.
I will soon have a chance to try that… "soon" according to the data center.
However, as previously stated, if you want IPV6 now, getting a HE IPV6 tunnel works super well.

@stephenw10, yes, those VLANs had the same /52…
@kejianshi, I will better go with /64, so I will post here how it goes...
In any case my "problem" is pinging from pfsense to my default route (even though both ips answer from the Internet)...
pfsense <----> default GW 2800:160:17c5::2/48 <----> 2800:160:17c5::1 /48I don't know why but I'm still thinking the ipv4 way, I resist to waste so many addresses :-)
Thank you guys for following up…
-
/64 on the wan is near useless. You really want to be able to give each LAN/OPT interface a /64
-
@kejianshi I'm sorry I wasn't clear… I want first to get this two addresses to communicate each other (pf <-> gw) using the /48 mask... only then I will change the /52 to /64 configs for my internal networks...
Any suggestion as to how troubleshoot this pf <-> gw issue? It's worth saying that this problem presents only for ipv6. It works fine in ipv4...
I'm folllowing this document, but I have done it twice for the WAN part and I still don't find anything :-

Just to let you know that I finally could establish comm between pf <-> gw . I'm almost sure it was a fw rule, but I touched so many little things… now I'm going to subnet using /64... Thank you all for your kind support.
-
Its really difficult to help figure out IPV6 without seeing your settings. For me anyway. But I'm glad its working for you.

Hello,
Just to let you know that my IPv6 is working now, again it seemed to be a faulty firewall rule. Once the connection established between my "pfsense" <-> "default isp gw" everything else went fine.
. public addresses 2800:160:17C5::/48
. internal addresses 2800:160:17C5:1~4::/64Initially I messed up with dhchpv6, then manual ipv6, finally stateless :-) and it works all right!
Again, thank you all for your great comments and support!
