Issues getting an IPv6 Address

Hello! 

I recently moved and after the move I am unable to get an IPv6 Address. 

Modem: SB8200
Router: Custom PfSense

Currrent PfSense config: 
IPv6 Configuration Type: DHCP6
Use IPv4 connectivity as Parent Interface: Checked
DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation size: 60
Send IPv6 prefix hint: Checked

In the past this would get me an IPv6 address, but now it is not and suggestions for getting this back working?

Didn't do anything, got an IPv6 Address. 

Yay, networking.

I've tried just straight dhcp6 as well with no IP address

Connect the computer directly to the SB8200 and try this test: http://test-ipv6.com/

 

Do you get 10 for 10 ?

O/k. For future reference, regarding this line: "DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation size: 60".

 

/60 prefixes can not be hinted anymore with Comcast. Only /64's.
