IPv6 with NH20A Bridge to PFSense
Hello, I'm having a really hard time getting IPv6 to work. Please help. Here's my setup: - Telus PureFiber X 3gbit - NH20A router provided by telus in Bridge mode - PFsense firewall connected ...

Community Power UserI don't have the NH20A so I can't comment on its capabilities.
I do know that PFSense is something well beyond what tech support is able to handle. IPv6 is also as it's not something they can configure or support, especially on third party hardware and software. Support is there only to support Telus products and services.
If I do recall correctly, there are other users that have posted in the past about using third party hardware on a bridged connection and having issues with IPv6. They had to tweak the settings on the third party device before IPv6 would work. If the NH20A itself has an IPv6 address then it is possibly just a configuration issue with PFSense.
Thanks for the replies. I'm not expecting Telus to help me configure PFSense. And I greatly appreciate everyone reading this thread and chiming in.
I'm just hoping Telus can offer me a functioning WAN link with IPv6. I would be very interested to know if anyone is able to get the NH20A to work with IPv6 in Bridge mode on any 3rd party router.
From how my packet capture shows the ping traffic leaving the WAN interface and never receiving a reply. It looks like Telus might be routing the /56 delegation prefix back to my WAN connection.
My brother has Telus XGS-PON service as well and was given some black nokia router instead of the white NH20A. The technician installed this instead when his service was setup when he told the technician he wanted to use his own router. I have not found any evidence of anyone getting IPv6 to work on the NH20A in bridge with a 3rd party router online. I would love to hear otherwise. If so, what device and what settings.
