what is the reason that ipv6 static is not available for residential if you dont mind me asking? I'm just curious as I am currently an IT student and getting marks of 98% on final exams. is there anything that you know of that can help as a workaround? I have tried to create cronjob to keep the connection alive and also DDNS through controld as well as DDNS through my router with asus DDNS. I have spent literally 10 hours talking with the controld AI called barry and learned ALOT but i can not seem to figure it out, I will try as you suggest to review log files and see if I can find whats going on. Thanks so much for you help with this!

20 days agoTelus hasn't offered static IPs on residential connections in many years. First started with IPv4. That is a business decision they made. There will be no workaround on a residential connection.
Keep in mind the things you are trying to do are those that 99.9% of the residential customer base would not be doing so ISPs, not just Telus, tend to tailor the services to the majority and to specific supported hardware provided by the ISP. Business connections can be different. I do know a static IP on a business connection is an additional cost. I have separate personal and business fibre connections and had static IPs on the business one.
