Good news! IPv6 has sprung to life for me. Ping6, traceroute6, and website tools for 4/6 connectivity all appear to work.
Has anyone seen IPv6 work in SF (Ingleside)?
If so, any tips on pfSense the config to use.

I don't think Sonic has enabled IPv6 anywhere in SF (I'm in the Mission and it is not enabled).iklier1221 wrote:Has anyone seen IPv6 work in SF (Ingleside)?

I would like to have ipv6 in my area I need this in San Francisco let's go Sonic!!
I realize that I never followed up on this. IPv6 started to work as expected less than a week after this post, but I forget the exact timeframe.ssstark wrote:My WAN is configured for DHCPv6 and gets an address of 2001:5a8:601:29::[XYZ], and a delegated prefix of 2001:5a8:610:[ABC]::/64

Settings:

After an evenings worth of troubleshooting, I think that the issue I'm hitting is within Sonics network:
2001:5a8:601:29::1 looks to be a gateway of some sort, and any traceroute I do times out there.Code: Select all
[sam@OPNsense ~]$ traceroute6 google.com traceroute6 to google.com (2607:f8b0:4005:80c::200e) from 2001:5a8:601:29::[XYZ], 64 hops max, 28 byte packets 1 2001:5a8:601:29::1 0.548 ms 1.315 ms 0.312 ms 2 * * * 3 * * * 4 * * * [...] 30 * * *
Last night a maintenance message indicated a small IPv6 rollout in SF:
"Tonight at 11:59 pm 3/9/2023 we will be turning on IPv6 to a small subset of residential fiber customers in the San Francisco area"
Wondering if I may have been included, Were the affected customers notified?

I checked your account from our end and unfortunately your area was not part of the current rollout. From what I understand, we are still rolling things out slowly/small quantities to avoid large scale issues and to continue testing things before launching on a wider scale.skyweir wrote:Last night a maintenance message indicated a small IPv6 rollout in SF:

For others reading this that are also curious if you're in the affected area, I would recommend using a IPv6 checker website to see if you're pulling a native IPv6 address.
(Additional note, if you are renting a SmartRG from Sonic, it unfortunately will not pull a working IPv6 address. However, the rental Eeros from Sonic will be able to. You will need to upgrade your equipment to the Sonic Eero Mesh WiFi System or have your own compatible router in order to grab your delegated /56 IPv6 address.)
Kind regards,

Also seems like I was not included (South of the Mission). At least router doesn't have a new IP on its interface connected to the ONT. I imagine once advertisements start showing up, it will pick it up w/o a reboot of either the ONT or the router or the DHCP daemon.
Very exciting to see progress. Thank you Sonic. Now please get us more than a single /64!

On this rollout in particular, we actually rolled out /56 addresses by popular request here on the forums. We're going to continue testing things and seeing what works best for us and the customers.jfa_roy wrote:Also seems like I was not included (South of the Mission).
