Hi Eagle77,
What do you mean by this? You are pinging a host on your LAN from a host outside your LAN (a host in another location that has access to the IPv6 Internet)? Or do you mean, you do a "IPv6 Ping Test" from the web interface of your DIR-857 (SYSTEM CHECK)?
That's correct. Everything works there. I can ping several hosts from the System check on the WEB gui on the DIR-857.
As I can see via whois, you are from Norway and your provider is "Hafslund Telekom Nettjenester". This provider owns the ipv6 address block 2a02:270::/32 and I guess you got the fraction 2a02:270:201f::/48 out of this block delegated to you for use inside your LAN? Or it might be the smaller fraction 2a02:270:201f::/56. But no matter what, for use inside your LAN you have to form a /64 out of the block delegated to you, and the most simple case is just 2a02:270:201f::/64, where the LAN interface of your router is configured to have the IPv6 address 2a02:270:201f::1. Am I right that this is your configuration? If not, tell us what you have configured within the IPv6 configuration of your DIR-857 box (e.g. a screenshot).
And you are correct that the ISP is Hafslund Telekom Nettjenester ( I work for that company.)
I have a /48 and a /64 net (picked them out myself.) I tried with a linknet as well too see if that worked.
2a02:270:201f::1/48 is the default gateway on the WAN side. (a Cisco ME3600)
2a02:270:201F::2/48 is the IPv6 Address (we use static IP addresses, no DHCP)
If I guessed right and 2a02:270:201f::1 is the address of the LAN interface of your router, then your results tell us, that the DIR-857 can ping itself (SYSTEM CHECK), which is trivial, but that you cannot ping the DIR-857 from any of your hosts inside your LAN.
I can't reach anything from the outside of my LAN, as you can see from the ping I tried earlier.
What kind of hosts do you use? Did you check if they have IPv6 addresses out of your address block 2a02:270:201f::/64? For example, if you use Windows, what does the command "ipconfig /all" (command prompt window) tell you? Show us the output of this command.
On the LAN side I use 2a02:270:1:27::2/64 both are gw's are terminated on the Cisco ME3600.

In case, your LAN hosts don't have appropriate IPv6 addresses, maybe you didn't enable automatic IPv6 address assignment within the IPv6 configuration of your DIR-857?
I have tried all the settings on the router regarding automatic IPv6 address assignment.
Use Link-Local Address: Unticked
IPv6 Address: 2A02:270:201F::2
Subnet Prefix Length: 48
Default Gateway: 2A02:270:201F::1
DNS: a local ISP in Norway and Google's IPv6 DNS server
LAN IPv6 Address: 2A02:270:1:27:2/64
Enable automatic IPv6 Address assignment: ticked
Autoconfiguration Type: SLAAC + RDNSS, also tried the other options as well without any luck.
