IPV6 on two distinct BT VDSL Lines was created by gswhite_uk
I have connectivity on my 2860ac with two VDSL lines.
On one line on WAN1 I have IPV6 working well.
Is it safe to enable IPV6 on the other line as well? Will there be any clash or issues?

You would have two IPV6 gateways with different IPV6 LAN addresses on the same network?

Yes. I'm not sure what the router does.... Sends two sets of RA and lets the PCs pick up both and use them randomly...or takes one at random. I'm not sure how you can do load balancing on an IPv6 router if the clients have public IP addresses.

reading more about IPV6, is you used DHCPV6 Stateful and not SLAAC or DHCPV6 Stateless it should actually work. I guess its testing time
