DHCPv6 Prefix delegation length is /48 and also mentioned here.
I tried today, but no luck. They were quite clear that for that it's either a business plan or the 3gbps plan.Has anyone else been successful in asking to be removed from cgnat?
I went live with the 1gbps service last week and was disappointed to find I was behind cgnat. I asked for a routable IP and without a response to my support ticket, found myself with an internet routable IP today after the connection failing and having to grab a new lease.
The only trouble is, IPV6 has stopped working completely dhcpv6 client just sits in "searching..." state.
Sounds interesting. Do another post on your Tailscale setup.So I figured out how to do what I want, which is 1) get notified if my network goes down and 2) access my Asus router's WebGUI remotely. All without IPv6.
It's very easy. Use healthchecks.io for the network status, and use Tailscale with the subnet router function to access your router (and the rest of your network if needed). Just need an active device on your network. I have an old Raspberry Pi 3 from 2016 that works perfectly for this.
Very easy to set up. Healthchecks.io is very simple and notifications are free, including SMS. And Tailscale is amazing, so good in fact that I'd probably still go that route even if I had a public static IPv4 address. I don't even have to enable any settings in the router like pings or Access from WAN or DDNS, as far as it knows I'm on the local network.
It all works automatically too once set up, just need to plug in the Raspberry Pi and it starts pinging healthchecks.io and Tailscale autostarts, no need to connect any peripherals.
CGNAT definitely sucks, but if it's the reason CF's gigabit plan costs half of what the competition charges, then I'm ok with it as there are definitely workarounds. However, they should offer paid options for a public IPv4 address and static IP, maybe £5/month each.

I have a similar setup on my raspberry pi 3 with the following setup over IPv4:
I use uptimerobot.com (free) for ping healthchecks and thinkbroadband quality monitor. OpenSSH is disabled externally since I recently installed Zerotier.
- No-IP Dynamic DNS client
- OpenVPN
- Wireguard
- Zerotier
I’m sure the above can be tweaked for IPv6 but haven’t got round to tinkering with it and not needed if using Tailscale / Zerotier for remote access.
It seems to me both Zerotier and Tailscale are basically the best solutions which run on top of Wireguard. Still trying to decide which one I should go for. I am not sure why would you setup also OpenVPN, Wireguard and No-IP Dynamic DNS client as well if you ha Zerotier, wouldn't Zerotier fullfil all those needs?I have a similar setup on my raspberry pi 3 with the following setup over IPv4:

I’ve had the raspberry pi for years, started with No-IP & OpenVPN and added over time. I would avoid OpenVPN now as it’s slower than Wireguard and generating OVPN configuration profiles is a PITA.It seems to me both Zerotier and Tailscale are basically the best solutions which run on top of Wireguard.

A relative on CF with CGNAT has an IPv4 address in the range 100.74.x.x.zerotier is not WG based. Its a closed source algo.
I run a headscale server on an Oracle VM.
BTW, Whats the IP range of CF CGNAT? As tailscale (with the official server) uses the 100.X range. With headscale you can use any ip range.
