More likely Network Manager or whatever you are using is your problem. Re-installing Debian, and doing all the customization one usually does after a new installation sounds to me like a lot of work for an unsure outcome. > CLI utilities confirm that my IPv6 is enabled and that WiFi interface > is assigned an IPv6 address.

If you are using Modem Manager, you can watch syslog to see what the DHCP server gives you computer when it assigns an address. tail -f /var/log/syslog I'd look for differences between the two bands. They should be pretty much the same. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/
