Trying to connect my laptop via UniFi IPV6. Router is a WNR3500L running Tomato Shibby build.

I set it for Native IPV6 from ISP, prefix length 64, static DNS from Google. I get assigned an IPV6 WAN address, and I can ping ipv6.google.com from the router.

But if I go to adapter settings in Win 8.1 I can see "IPV6 No internet connection" and ipv6-test.com tells me it's not working.

Any tips?

I got it working ... to some extent. I chose DHCPv6 as the mode instead of Native from ISP. Prefix length 64. RA from WAN ticked. Google static DNS.

My laptop got assigned an IPV6 IP and I could browse most websites, HOWEVER I could not access mail.yahoo.com (many others worldwide complain about this using IPV6) AND this very forum! What's up with that?? I disabled IPV6 in the router and now I'm able to get on LYN again.

Any idea on why can't I load lowyat.net and forum.lowyat.net once I enabled IPV6? Using TP Link W8970-V3 currently. Google's IPV6 test and test-ipv6.com shows that I'm connected.

Same problem for me with IPV6 enabled - can't load LYN forum. Browser connects to URL but page doesn't load.
