1 edit | [IPv6] I have gateway but no connectivityRouter with latest nightly of OpenWRT, doing DHCP duty for SBG6580.
Decided to try and get direct IPv6 up and going. I've read lots of stuff but most examples are for static ips.
Right now I'm getting an IPv6 gateway, and I can resolve IPv6 addresses via my router's shell, but I can't ping the addresses via ping6. (network unreachable)
IPv6 packets are forwarded. No ip6tables installed yet.
using wide-dhcpv6-client + radvd.

| Unless your SBG6580 is in bridge mode (gateway router functions totally disabled), you may not be able to get IPv6 to function properly.
»mydeviceinfo.comcast.net/
The only Motorola modems that Comcast has certified for IPv6 are the SB6120 and SB6121. Comcast does not appear to currently support IPv6 using any cable gateway boxes from any vendor. |

| It's bridged.
My router clones the modem MAC and handles all DHCP. |

Fort Lauderdale, FL | Cloning the modem MAC is pointless, it's not read by the system on the router, it's read on the modem. |

That makes no sense at all, and it has nothing to do with whether or not your SBG6580 is in bridge mode.
Look at your router's WAN interface status. If it is getting a Comcast public IPv4 address from the Comcast DHCP server, then your SBG6580 is in bridge mode. If the router's WAN IPv4 address is in the 10/8 subnet, or the 172.16/12 subnet, or the 192.168/16 subnet, (see »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_ne···s_spaces ) then your SBG6580 is not in bridge mode. |

| Technically, if the external router "handles all DHCP," the 6580 is in bridge mode. I'm not sure that's actually the case, but that is what he said. |

The phrase "handles all DHCP" could also just mean that the OP is using the external router's DHCP server to supply DHCP to the LAN. When you do tech support for a living you learn to read between the lines and hear the unspoken. |

"Read between the lines," aka, don't trust what the customer is telling you. That's all well and good, but the OP was smart enough to figure out how to use OpenWRT and Linux. |

SBG6580 will not have CPE IPv6 support till the next release, and I don't have a ETA on the next release. |

That might be your interpretation, but mine is "don't trust what the customer is NOT telling you". |
