Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Guys, I just installed Ubuntu 15.04 on a brand new Dell E7440 Laptop and Network Manager disable the Router Advertisement for my IPv6 connection! My connection settings for both wired and WiFi have: Edit Connection -> Edit Settings -> IPv6 Settings -> Method = Automatic But, take a look: --- root@ultra:~# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/wlan0/accept_ra 0 root@ultra:~# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/eth0/accept_ra 0 --- So, my IPv6 connection doesn't work. I need to manually re-enable it, by running: --- echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/wlan0/accept_ra --- Then, my IPv6 works again! Everytime I reconnect to a network, I need to "echo 1 > accept_ra" again... Very annoying. Please, help! Thanks in advance... Cheers!
