Firstly, MANY Thanks for this Forum.

Following multiple tutorials, I have enabled IPv6 in the Syrotech Combo device. Its interface confirms IPv6:
BSNL Fiber FTTH IPv6

The OpenWrt router connected to this Syrotech Combo Device gets IPv6 too:
OpenWrt v23.05

However, none of the devices connected wirelessly to the OpenWrt Router have IPv6 addresses or IPv6 Connectivity:
Windows 10 v22H2 (Wi-Fi 5Ghz)

Please advise how to activate IPv6 Connectivity.

[Update 01]
IPv6 has been configured correctly on Windows PC and it works, BUT ONLY for Mobile Hotspot:

This means IPv6 is configured correctly and works with Cellular Data.

However, while using BSNL Fiber FTTH, it shows IPv6 "No Network Access."
Hence, IPv6 is showing only till OpenWrt Router. It is not being passed downwards to connected devices.
What could be the issue?

Did it fix your issue @alap4m ?

Mine's enabled in Windows and I do get the v6 address but it shows No internet access over IPv6.

Pinging to any IPv6 site fails.

In my case, BSNL does not provide IPv6 in Maharashtra. Are you sure your location has IPv6 enabled ?
 
Do you only got DNS or DNS with IP Address? Either way, Screenshot will look like mine and if it is like that, Try to connect yor Laptop with Ethernet and see if IPv6 is enabled or not in Ethernet & Internet connectivity Properties.

Its enabled.

Also, I get the same as you in ONT (Including a blank dns2) when I tried it through the ONT.

Now ONT is in bridge and I've configured IPv6 through router and its the same. I get address but Internet doesn't work over V6
 
Sorry for the late response.
IPv6 is Enabled in Adapter Settings and it works But ONLY for Mobile Hotspot:

@alap4m I can't see the screenshot because they are removed. Is ONT in bridge mode and Openwrt runs PPPoE? On PC nothing needs to be done as IPv6 is enabled by default.

@!!..PD..!! Which device do you use, ONT or a separate router?
