    Not getting an ipv6 address with Merlin on a RT-AC5300

    I don't have a way to verify this cause that router is no longer with me but if I were to guess, i'd say it was 378.56_0 Everyone, I very much appreciate all the brainstorming despite the lack of a solution. Thanks!

    Not getting an ipv6 address with Merlin on a RT-AC5300

    Just for the heck of it, I plugged in a Netgear R8300 from a friend to see if it would get an ipv6 address. It did. We also tried a different Asus AC5300 to rule out that I have bad hardware, same result on the swapped AC5300... no ipv6.

    Not getting an ipv6 address with Merlin on a RT-AC5300

    Nope, no device is acting as a DHCP/DNS server. The network that I have consists of : a few computers phones gaming devices home automation devices like thermostats, light switches, etc. In short, nothing extraordinary. Despite the thrashing, all devices are online. I did turn on MU-MIMO, but...

    Ran the recommended commads. Syslog is posted here: https://gist.github.com/gniting/0e07a8ba22ba8b599f3ce59d8fef911a

    Not getting an ipv6 address with Merlin on a RT-AC5300

    Done... no change in status of ipv6. Actually, the DNS settings was "default" all along and I just switched it to the custom DNS to see if it would do the trick.

    @ColinTaylor Here's a screenshot of System Log -> IPv6. @john9527 switched DHCP query freq to "normal" and rebooted. No change.

    Not getting an ipv6 address with Merlin on a RT-AC5300

    @jegesq The old one was exhibiting the same behavior so I thought it was the modem and therefore I switched it out. New one has the same issue as the old one. After switching it out, I called Comcast to have them switch out the MAC addresses so that the new modem would be provisioned/added to...

    Not getting an ipv6 address with Merlin on a RT-AC5300

    @jegesq I was thinking the same but then ended up discarding that train of thought because every time I plug in a laptop directly into the cable modem, it gives out an ipv6 address without fail. Have now tried with 4 diff laptops, all successfully get an ipv6 address. Also, the only line in the...

    Not getting an ipv6 address with Merlin on a RT-AC5300

    @ColinTaylor tried that, no luck. @john9527 DNS Filter was already off. Just to leave no stone unturned, I also reset the firmware back to factory settings and as soon as it came back up, before I made any changes anywhere, I checked the ipv6 tab... was blank. If it was any of my settings...

    Not getting an ipv6 address with Merlin on a RT-AC5300

    Hmmm, I don't have custom DNS servers in the LAN pages. I did add them a while ago but removed them so I am surprised to see that the setting still persists. Any way to manually remove this since, and as you can see from the screenshot below, I don't have any DNS server entry on the LAN page...

    Opened all of those files in vi but did not get any warning. When I "cat" the files on command line, there's no funny chars at the end of line either. /tmp/resolv.dnsmasq and /e t c/hosts.dnsmasq are empty.

    Both those directories are empty. I searched everywhere for files named "dnsmasq*". Results are in the attached screenshot.

    Here you go... there's no line 23! https://gist.github.com/gniting/ae5983c322a2ca33ccfdb324bc2ef41d (Pasting as a gist cause if I paste the file as-is, it triggers some random cloudflare security flag and it disallows me to post).

    Not getting an ipv6 address with Merlin on a RT-AC5300

    "Native" was the one that worked on the AC3200 but I've now tried all of the options on the list, no luck. I've also now tried the "official" ASUS firmware for this router to remove the Merlin firmware as a variable. No luck. IMO, it's clearly a firmware issue cause when connected directly to...

    Yes, when connected direct to the modem, I do get an ipv6 address.
