both tickboxes were unticked. I have enabled both now.
Laptop can ping 2600:: but PC cannot. Restarted both and did ipconfig /release and /renew on both.
Both get IPv4 and IPv6 through DHCP from the Mikrotik
UPDATE: My laptop, server and even my Plex VM can all ping 2600::
My gaming rig is the only one that doesn't appear to be playing nice.
From my laptop:

Yeah. Will update windows and maybe even just reinstall Windows completely.
But thank you for your help.
@AfriNatic i notice my v6 prefix changes every now and then (a few mins ago it just changed which made all my ipv6 break until i refreshed leases) - it's done it around 3 times so far. Is it not meant to be fixed per MAC?
The Ipv6 prefix allocated is dynamic. It's linked to radius and controlled by Openserve. I did speak to the Network engineer to see what can be done to manipulate it to re allocate the same /60 on renewal. I will follow up on this for you.

This is a must have for me. No use having the advantage of IPV6 (no NAT nirvana) and have a prefix that changes the whole time.

Looks like my gaming rig didn't really restart yesterday when I told it.
I am pleased to report that all devices on my network capable of IPv6 are working!

See above how to enable it on USG, then look at your CPU util using top. If you see high util from a DHCP daemon I'll PM you with some assistance.

So it's been about a 2 weeks since I switched to IPV6...
All good, except 1 thing.
Telegram... Ever since I switched to IPV6, it feels like Telegram only works when it wants to and usually only on one device.. like sometimes it would work fine on laptop and not on phone and then other times fine on phone and not on laptop.
When I disable ipv6 it works 100% on both devices.
Not sure if the problem lies with Afrihost or Telegram.
Also, anyone know if I can set custom DNS for ipv6 on Huawei WS5200 router?

Any feedback on this? I popped over to a different /60 again, it seems to hop between two that are only 1 digit different from one another.
Didn't notice any issue this time, I just have my home assistant reporting it's current v6 and noticed the prefix changed
I am experiencing the same thing with Telegram, always works on my phone but i need to restart it a few times on desktop to "catch up" since it just stops getting messages after a while
