So I just did that, I used my fedora 20 laptop with rp-pppoe & wide-dhcpv6.
As soon as ppp0 comes up, it has an IPv4 and IPv6 address on it.

When I run the dhcp6c client in PD mode, It keeps sending SOLICIT messages
and receives nothing back, I used tcpdump to confirm, nothing comes back.

Perhaps this has something to be with the fact it's an NBN connection; who
knows.

Thanks everyone for your help, I was hoping that someone from Internode who
actually knows IPv6 would contact me, but I don't think that will happen.
