Model: ER605 (TL-R605)  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 2.1.2 Build 20230210 Rel.62992

Hi, I'd like to enable and setup IPv6 in my ER605 v2 router but it always use IPv4. I have attached my current setup (this is temporary as I'm still planning to upgrade the access points)

Current Setup # current setup

 

I already have IPv6 enabled in my ISP. Accessing https://whatismyipaddress.com/ still says IPv6 is not detected. But connecting directly through the Wi-Fi of my ISP's modem, there is an IPv6. In my ER605 router's IPv6 WAN, there is already an ip address obtained.

ER605 - IPv6 WAN 

 

ER605 - LAN IPv6

 

Is there some wrong in my setup? Apologies, I'm new to this and still learning how to configure these kind of network.

 

FYI: This is my home network.

Hi @marlosoft 

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

So, it looks like the DHCPv6 is working internally. Can you make sure your AP support DHCPv6?

Get a PC wired to the ER605, use DHCPv6 alone and test if it is connected to the IPv6? It should pass any test of IPv6 as DHCPv6 is working based on your screenshots.
