IPv6 issues after sysupgrade

Even I go with one of the better providers in my country even a "normal" reboot from time to time ends up for me to wait like 20 to 30 minutes till I get a pppoe response and a new dhcp lease and dhcpv6 PD :person_shrugging:

I doubt that such an old and low feature gets broken suddenly. Even if someone did major rewrites I would expect lots of unit tests which should highlight bugs long before code gets committed.

Did you checked the open issues or did you opened a new one?

I reset the settings of my custom build to default just to check but no IPv6.
I tested the latest available snapshot build from firmware-selector with default packages and first boot settings but still no IPv6.
So I assume there is an issue in a recent commit.

Complete the procedure I highlighted to determine the problem

./scripts/update_git_source_package.sh ./package/network/services/odhcpd/Makefile 053e6c4b386348834e35e5fefc921fadc0e64025

Update
Thanks for your help.
I've disabled WAN6 interface for the last 12 hours and just a few minutes ago I re-enabled it and it simply got all IPv6 attributes. Weird ISP stuff.

Just to close this case I add some more information.
I updated two other routers that use the same ISP and the same IPv6 glitch appeared in both cases. I had to disconnect WAN6 interface for 24 hours and then when I restarted WAN6 interface IPv6 worked OK.

Did you try the routine as I suggested?

No, unfortunately I couldn't try it, sorry. It was a remote upgrade and I just forgot to try it.
