IPV6 on BT Infinity

Has anybody managed to get IPV6 working with an Orbi and BT Infinity.  I have the Orbi in Router mode running off a TP Link VR900 in bridge mode as my modem.  I understand that BT use DHCPV6 PD/56 but see no way of selecting that on my Orbi.  If I let it Auto config or detect (What is the difference?) nothing happens. And what is teh real world difference of leaving IPV6 on the disabled setting?

 

Thanks for any advice.

    Hello timch

     

    You will have to use AutoConfig mode for IPV6 PD/56.

      Does Orbi support BT's version of IPv6?

       

      Many Netgear modems and routers do not.
