- I'm not doing anything weird
I'm using the client, as per the wiki WireGuard - LibreELEC.wiki. - That's fine if you want to use IPv4; that's your opinion. DDNS is not something that I want to use and IPv6 is more convenient for me and that's my opinion.
- IPv6 does work for me. As I've said in my original post: I've got several clients working fine with WireGuard over IPv6 and I have no issues whatsoever with them. I therefore disagree that this is an ISP problem. Nonetheless, I've run the test that you linked to and I got 9/10 -- the only thing that failed is that my ISP doesn't use IPv6 for DNS. Seeing as I'm not using hostnames in any of the testing above, this isn't the issue.

My home internet connection has a dynamic IPv4 address, but it has a IPv6 range assigned to it, meaning that I can assign a static public IPv6 addresses to my VPN server.
I've successfully configured the WireGuard VPN client in LibreElec, using the current dynamic IPv4 address of my VPN server, as per this documentation. This works fine, even after reboots.
I would like to move to connecting to the VPN server using it's static IPv6 address. I don’t want to use dynamic DNS and I can’t obtain a static IPv4 address for my internet connection.
I’ve updated the WireGuard config to use the IPv6 address, updated the systemd service config file with the new connection name (which changes because the `Host` of the VPN config has changed) and then rebooted, I am unable to access any resources over the tunnel as the VPN connection has not been established. Note: At this point, I’ve confirmed that systemd launched the `connmanctl connect vpn_…` command and didn’t error.
If I disconnect, then connect, it kind of works, but doesn’t (I've obfuscated my IPv6 address):

Does any one have any ideas what I can do to make the LibreElec WireGuard VPN client work with accessing the VPN server over IPv6?
