So it would appear that Plusnet's Surf feature is incompatible with IPv6. Could someone else check and confirm?
Thanks!
Doug.

Will leave it enabled overnight and try testing again in the morning.

I am spending far too much time changing settings on the routers/devices on my network. If there is a potential issue Plusnet's end, then it would save me a lot of time!

Quote from: AndyH Is it possible for one of the Plusnet network guys to look at my problem?
I can try...
I can ping your IP from our core upto a size of 1492
phughes@ptw-cr01-re0> ping 2a02:16c8:2000:xxxx:: size 1444
PING6(1492=40+8+1444 bytes) 2a02:16c8::a --> 2a02:16c8:2000:xxxx::

If you are running a PPPoE setup (like I am) you may need to lower your LAN side IPv6 MTU, mines set to 1400 just while I was testing but other have it a bit higher.
:ip rt6advd ifdetach intf LocalNetwork
:ip rt6advd ifconfig intf=LocalNetwork linkmtu=1492
:ip rt6advd ifattach intf LocalNetwork
:saveall
Other than that I can't see anything wrong with a quick glance and you've done most of the basic troubleshooting already (which helps )

Thanks for the response.
I'm running PPPoE - so I've changed the LAN MTU to 1400:
Quote {admin}=>:ip iflist
Interface Group MTU RX TX Admin Oper
1 loop. . . . . . . . . . . . . . local 4096 32 MB 40 MB UP [UP]

4 Multicast . . . . . . . . . . . wan 1500 32 KB 35 KB UP UP
But still no go
This is what is happening:
Facebook is another one:
The strange thing is I can ping the sites like Facebook with ICMP and also on TCP Port 80:

It's almost like my browser is sending the requests, but nothing is coming back - but even that doesn't make a whole lot of sense because I am able ping the sites with TCP on Port 80. This is all very confusing
Edit: I should add that I can run the http://test-ipv6.com/ absolutely fine - I get 10/10 there. Even http://ipv6.google.com works fine. But some sites just refuse to load - I tried http://ipv6labs.cyberis.co.uk/logo.png as just a basic image with no scripts/html and even this will not load.
I have also tried various gateways - PCL/PTN/PTW to rule out that being a problem. I've even borrowed a neighbour's laptop to rule out all my equipment being at fault!
I was thinking whether it might be worth trying a PPP connection directly to the ONT but I am not sure if that will work with IPv6.

Quote ppp0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1492

But IPv6 doesn't seem to work at all on my Mac. Under the PPPoE settings, I've got Configure IPv4 set to Using PPP and Configure IPv6 set to Configure Automatically (other choices are Manually and Link-Local only)

I tried wget to see if that worked (with a 30 sec timeout):
Quote sh-3.2# wget -6 -T 30 www.thinkbroadband.com
--2014-04-01 17:08:39-- http://www.thinkbroadband.com/
Resolving www.thinkbroadband.com... 2a02:68:1::4
Connecting to www.thinkbroadband.com|2a02:68:1::4|:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... Read error (Operation timed out) in headers.
Retrying.
That pretty much sums up the problem. The HTTP request is being sent, but nothing is coming back.

I still have ipv6 connectivity but its very slow, 3mbit/sec on single threaded throughput.
also my ipv6 tbb graphs look very different to my ipv4 again.

Quote from: paulmh5 If you sick wireshark on while you are doing this does it provide any useful information, are you getting anything at all back from TBB (acks/resets etc...)? Is it the same for all IPv6 sites? I know you mentioned the problem was the same I'm just curious to see if they all behave the same to a HTTP GET.
Most IPv6 sites won't work - the few that will are http://ipv6.google.com and http://test-ipv6.com
I'm getting SYN, SYN-ACK and ACK messages back when using Wireshark. I've attached 3 Wireshark screenshots from using wget: TBB/Cyberis Logo (both of which don't work) and Google (which works - the longer image). The initial handshake looks fine (I think).

I'm not sure if this helps/explains why some sites work and some don't mind you. I'd be interested to see if anyone else sees similar wiresharks to either you or me.
I'll have an ask about the team tomorrow see if anyone has any immediate ideas but it does seem like an odd one.
As far as I can tell the lesson here is....If its working leave well alone

http://ipv6labs.cyberis.co.uk/logo.png should be a good one to try because it's a single HTTP request. There's also http://ipv4labs.cyberis.co.uk/logo.png to compare IPv4 vs IPv6.
This problem has totally baffled me
We know my trial account should be fine - another trialist has tested it and had no problems. I tried his trial account and the problem still occurred.
I would put money on this being down to whatever BT TSO did Thursday morning (I am going to try and prove this tomorrow). The fact that I tried a router firmware upgrade has to be coincidental as I've tried a different router that has never been used before.
This is indeed a lesson of leave it alone or it will break
