I hate resorting to NANOG, but I've spent over 5 hours on the phone with Xfinity the past two days, and I can't seem to get someone who understands my problem. I do not have working IPv6 - I do not get an address or PD. I have working IPv4. Xfinity wanted to blame this on my modem, so I went and picked up a Xfinity modem. From the 10.0.0.1 web site on the xfinity modem, I can ping IPv4 addresses fine. I can not ping IPv6 addresses from the modem itself, thus taking my equipment out of the picture. This is a new activation. Xfinity keeps asking questions like "well, can you surf the internet", which shows that they seem to totally lack understanding. I've talked to at least 7 people, and have reached my breaking point. I know, I know, its residential and I should have low expectations. I'm sorry for the noise, but I can't seem to find anyone with clue.

Did you get in touch with someone? What was the problem? On Sun, Aug 4, 2019, 9:50 PM Janet Sullivan <janets@nairial.net> wrote:

Janet, Did an actual person follow up with you privately after ipv6 got working on your connection? ... Or was it more like magic silence from their end. And suddenly it "just" worked? /Chriztoffer On 05/08/2019 04:00, Ross Tajvar wrote:
