Helix gateway doesn't have Ipv6 address

Hello, 

I was told that ipv6 is supported, but seems only 6to4 works. My helix gateway doesn't have real Ipv6 address, there is Ipv6 gateway, but my device cannot get ipv6. 

 

Videotron can you guys please help to check?

 

Best regards

 

  • Hi, Videotron controls who has ipv6.  They don't deploy it to everyone, I think it's a helpdesk training issue... Maybe other issues... I made a complaint, and they eventually  turned it on for me.  It works perfectly.  I have my helix box in bridge mode, and my own router behind it...  My network is getting public ipv6 addresses via dhcp from Videotron (about 30 nodes) and rotating through them for anonymity reason.  I have some more limited iot stuff that doesn't supprot IPv6, and I have an v4 dhcp server for that.
