IPv6 support on Virgin media
Does anyone know whether (and if so when) Virgin plan to implement IPv6 on its network?
Forum Discussion
Thanks alot for the replys, I gave kudos to those that helped.
I thought I would have been auto subscribed to the thread but thats not on as default, so changed the setting.
It seems my D-Link DIR-615 and Netgear WNR2000 doesn't support IPv6 anyway, but as people have said they can probably relase firmware updates.
IPv6 is new to me so this thread makes a good read :)
The D-link DIR-615 does have ipv6 support, although aparrently some revisions of the firmware are buggy.
Look at the datasheet for the dir-615:
ftp://ftp10.dlink.com/pdfs/products/DIR-615/DIR-615_ds.pdf
it even has an ipv6 ready logo at the bottom!
The netgear it seems does not by default, but you could install a third party firmware like dd-wrt or openwrt on it to get ipv6 support.
My D-Link looks different to that thou, it looks like this:
Mine says hardware verson D4. Unfortunatly my WNR200 is abit bust, it randomly reboots itself!
I created a tunnel here: http://tunnelbroker.net then copied the command to the command line and rebooted Win 7, but it doesnt seem to do anything. Anyone got some tips please?
Regular ipv6 (GRE) tunnels like tunnelbroker.net won't work properly behind NAT...
Might need to either route the tunnel to your router (assuming it supports it), or look into using a teredo tunnel (windows 7 usually tries to enable a teredo tunnel by default, but it doesnt always work).
Pretty sure WNR2000 is IPv6 compliant. I could access IPv6 sites when I had mine with no extra config.
- I just tried it and didnt seem to work :(
