Many users have reported that frequently changing IPv6 addresses cause page load to be slow or even prevent from working at all. The issues can be fixed by updating the IPv6 address in /etc/pihole/setupVars.conf followed by a run of pihole -g. However, this solution turns out to be very inconvenien…

Fritzbox Cable 6490 (Firmware 6.51) Thanks @Dmx ! This option is also available in the Fritzbox 7490 and @Erdnussknacker suggests that it should be available on all Fritzboxes running FRITZ!OS firmware greater equal version 6.50. [image]

So I started getting IPv6 from my ISP recently. And here's how I got ULA working with pi-hole and pfsense router. I get IPv6 by DHCP6 on the WAN interface with "Use IPv4 connectivity as parent interface" & "Send IPv6 prefix hint" checked, and a prefix size of 64. On the LAN side it's set to track-i…

For all users of the Speedport Hybrid router by Deutsche Telekom: take a look at the above screenshot for the Speedport W 724V, it's the same as for the Hybrid. Home network -> Home network (LAN) -> Name and address of the router -> Use local IPv6 address (ULA)

What is the suggested way if the router does not have the option to turn on ULA? I'm having a "Connect Box" from my ISP (UPC). :frowning:

I wonder this as well. I have an Arris gateway from Spectrum and am using the Pi-hole as a DHCP server. Is there any way the Pi can handle this, or does it need to be the gateway?

Anyone know how to do this with a Ubiquiti Edgerouter-X? I have one of those behind a XB3 set to bridge mode and I appear to be getting IPv6 and really slow page loads sometimes.

If you have slow page loads, take a look at our guide for IPTables rules and see if those help. I have an ER-X SFP and just have a few rules to handle things. I'm not sure offhand how to set up ULA but I do know it's possible, but done via command line when setting up the DHCP server portion. …

Literally following the same guide you linked. I'll skip to that section if you think that's the issue though.

[image] DL6ER: Hint: The following code snipet might come in handy I noticed my IPv6 GUA changes, whenever I reboot my router and found @DL6ER script here , unfortunately, this script runs 'pihole -g' (and restarts dnsmasq or FTLDNS), even if the IPv6 address didn't change, so I improved the s…
