IPv6 via 6rd on Centurylink problem: No route to host.

I've recently switched to OPNsense from OpenWRT as part of a switch from Comcast to CenturyLink.
I'm having trouble getting IPv6 (via 6rd) working on OPNsense 19.7_5 and I could use some help.
The problem:
I can't reach (HTTP, ping, traceroute) any IPv6 hosts beyond the OPNsense firewall/gateway from either clients, or the OPNsense box itself.
I can resolve IPv6 addresses for sites like Google.
Pings from client and OPNsense die with "no route to host"
Traceroutes from clients report one hop, the opnsense box, before complaining there is no route to host on the next hop.
Traceroutes from the opnsense box complain "no route to host"
My configuration:
I have a VLAN interface setup on the ethernet port connected to the CL ONT, which is a necessary part of bypassing the modem they provided.
I have my WAN interface configured to use a PPPoE tunnel for IPv4 and a 6rd tunnel for IPv6.
The PPPoE section is configured with the ISP login info.
The 6rd section is configured with the 6rd tunnel config info from the ISP (details below).
I've updated the automatically created Point-to-Point device to use the VLAN interface for the link interface.
The LAN interface is configured with a static address for the IPv4 configuration type, and "Track Interface" for the IPv6 configuration type.
The Track IPv6 section is set to use the WAN interface as the IPv6 Interface (WAN is the only available option). The IPv6 prefix ID is 0x0, which is what it defaulted to.
I have also chosen to allow manual adjustment of DHCPv6and Router Advertisements because if I didn't LAN clients weren't aware of a gateway on the LAN, and traceroutes failed immediately, complaining of no route to host.
Router advertisements are currently set to "Assisted"
I'm using default/autogenerated firewall rules for both IPv4 and IPv6 (includes "default allow LAN IPv6 to any rule")
Firewall:Settings:Advanced AllowIPv6 is checked
System:Settings:General Prefer to use IPv4 even if IPv6 is available is unchecked
I'm using autogenerated gateways (WAN_6rd, WAN_PPPOE). "Under System:Gateways:Single," a gateway address is listed for WAN_PPPOE but not for, WAN_6RD.
Further Details:
IPv4 works as expected
Clients obtain IPv6 addresses within the Centurylink Prefix
WAN 6rd Rapid Deployment Config settings
6RD prefix 2602::/24
6RD Border Relay 205.171.2.64
6RD IPv4 Prefix length 0 bits
6RD IPv4 Prefix address Auto-detect

That's all I can think of, now. I'll update if I think of anything else.
Suggestions on how I can get this working, or how to troubleshoot it further?
Thanks!

Switching to a fresh install PFsense solved my problem, though I'd prefer OpnSense's much more coherent web UI (and available wireguard package)

Also having this issue, I came from pfsense, where it did work like your experience. Seems the WAN interface supports dhclient6 though. Tried talking to CenturyLink, they didn't really understand IPv6 (on the residential side).
I'll work on more testing in coming weeks here, may need a bug report.

Just registered to ask about this. I'm evaluating OPNsense, hugely impressed so far, it solves several problems for me and the coherence and utility of the UI is outstanding.
But 6rd tunnel is failing: WAN does not appear to get an IPv6 address (although LAN clients do!) and there's no IPv6 connectivity over the WAN.
I'm also a CenturyLink residential customer. 6rd works fine in OpenWRT and raw native Linux routers.
I would be happy to provide further information.

I was able to get my IPv6 setup working with a static IP address and a gif tunnel. I had the static IP from my previous setup before IPv6 and would like to get rid of it. Has anyone gotten this to work?

Just jumping in to say that I'm in the same situation here with Centurylink's residential GPON gigabit service. I have dynamic IPs, and have had them administratively remove the VLAN 201 requirement, but otherwise my configuration is the same as described by others here. I'm on a new install of OPNsense, installed as 20.7 and currently on 20.7.1.
@madj42 would you mind sharing details about your gif tunnel setup? I previously had a static IP block for this line but I never setup the GIF tunnel myself.
