TekSavvy → IPv6 beta

@Gabe
Any possibility of posting the build for ASUS routers?

@Everyone
What are people's experiences with Gabe's new build? Is it stable enough for day-to-day use?

We haven't even tried flashing a router with alpha 7 yet (we just compiled and are waiting for time to test), and gabe pulled that code out of git and compiled his own, so consider it untested

I just flashed it about 10 minutes ago and I'm up OK. (WRT54Gv2)

Taylortbb he just released it a few hours ago but his earlier versions were working good. too early atm to tell ya how it will be for day to day.

Everything is up and running and working nicely. I've subnetted the assigned /56 and am advertising the various prefixes on my internal network and all systems can at least hit ipv6.google.com.

I've said this in the direct forum and on another thread, but I'll repeat here: the only thing I miss is PTR records for my IPv6 addresses. Pleasepleaseplease offer delegation of our /56 prefixes.

Otherwise, thanks TSI for being awesome. It's exciting to finally get native IPv6.

Is it available in Western Canada?

not yet, soon though

The new stuff out West allow for future IPv6 and possibly MLPPP too?

once they make their dns servers have ipv6 then can do ip6 arpa requests imagine, those v6 apra's are huge lines xD

To be clear, I don't want TSI to add the PTR records for my IPs but delegate the /56 to my nameserver so I can manage the PTR records myself.

So, stupid question, I can't get this to work. You say:

For example, if we assigned you
 
2607:f2c0:blah:1::/64
2607:f2c0:blah:4200::/56
 
You will need to enter "2607:f2c0:blah:4200::1" in the Router IPv6 field
and select /56 as the Router IPv6 netmask. Hit Save. At that point every IPv6 capable host behind the router should pick up an IP.
 

My assigned blocks the "blah" is different as well as the next section.

So in my router for example I've assigned it as the /56 as "2607:f2c0:blah2:4200::1" is this correct?

I should not that my router is capable of pinging ipv6 addresses, but appears to not be passing working addresses to my PCs.

pretty bad ass ....

forget Bell and their stupid Olympic commercial bullshit.

Lets move on to making real beneficial technology work for any great way we can with any great ISP we can use it with in conjunction , what a great way to do business, this is pretty amazing.

Keep up the work brothers

Kindest Regards , .................................................................

Can we opt into this beta and still have our existing account/login? can the two be used on seperate computers? I'm tempted interested getting into this to learn more about it etc.

I've followed these directions using the ipv6 address assigned to me and logging into to @hsiservice.net and the router is not assigning my vista machine an ipv6 address.

You will need to enter "2607:f2c0:blah:4200::1" in the Router IPv6 field
and select /56 as the Router IPv6 netmask. Hit Save. At that point every IPv6 capable host behind the router should pick up an IP.

Has anyone else had this problem or know how to resolve it?
TIA!

Can you post your ipconfig /all info for your adaptor? it may be assigned but another problem

Here's my ipconfig/all
The adapter isn't being assigned anything for ipv6 from the router

I want to add, I CAN ping ipv6.google.com from the router just fine.

- ipv6less

(sarcasm) No wonder, you don't even have a valid MAC address! (/sarcasm)

Seriously, it's like trying to hide a computer's local IP as 192.168.0.5, it's silly.

After upgrading to Gabe's new build of Tomato, I can't seem to get IPv6 working. Before, I used to use IPv6 just fine with a /64 subnet. After upgrading, it wouldn't let me use /64, so I asked in the direct forum if I could get a /56.

I was assigned these:
2607:f2c0:blah:21::/64
2607:f2c0:blah:1500::/56 (this 'blah' is different than the other one)

What /56 do I need to use 2607:f2c0:blah:1500::1 or 2607:f2c0:blah:1500::21 ? I've tried both, but I can't access ipv6.google.com.

Hum, I hope you aren't actually typing "blah" in there. Replace that with the actual IP provided.

lol, yeah I have some mild knowledge in the computer world, I would know to replace the blah :P

It worked fine using a /64 subnet in your 1.19 firmware (I could access IPv6 sites and see my IP)

2607:f2c0:blah:1500::1 in your case.

Like I said previously, I'm going to work on Tomato so that the user doesn't have to type any IPv6 address at all. The problem at the moment is that IPv6 Neighbour Discovery + MLPPP doesn't work on our ERXes. We filed a bug report with Juniper, they acknowledged the problem and are working on a patch.

A part of my log: »pastie.org/private/gl0xb ··· acj6aivw
2607:f2c0:blah:1500::1 (replaced blah with the actual value) is in the IPv6 field, /56 selected. Still not working.

Based on this

Feb 27 20:17:38 unknown local2.info pppd[5332]: Terminating link on signal 2
Feb 27 20:17:38 unknown local2.notice pppd[5332]: Link terminated.

You aren't connected... I can't tell why though.

Connected to what? I can browse the internet fine, posting this using the connection.

Should I try reflashing and erasing NVRAM?

EDIT: Looks like I'm not the only one »IPv6 Testers

No sillier than that post..

But seriously, i've been at this all day and still nothing..
Can ping ipv6 hosts from the router/tools but still can't get Vista to accept an ipv6 address.. nor my Ubuntu laptop..

Used the solution posted at »IPv6 Testers posted by daboom. Worked nicely

I am getting the same errors. I cannot ping from hosts behind my router which are getting assigned the IPv6 addresses. I get destination unreachable back from the router.
C:\ping 2001:4860:800b::93

Pinging 2001:4860:800b::93 with 32 bytes of data:

Destination host unreachable.
Destination host unreachable.
Destination host unreachable.
Destination host unreachable.

I can ping IPv6 addresses from the cli of the router.

ping -6 2001:4860:800b::93
PING 2001:4860:800b::93 (2001:4860:800b::93): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 2001:4860:800b::93: seq=0 ttl=56 time=44.281 ms

doesn't look like u got ipv6 on at all

What OS you got running there? looks like XP.

to anyone else having the router work with ipv6 and nothing else and esp if your lan device is getting a ipv6 address assigned from the router. check this part out.

»Re: IPv6 Testers

Anyone mind checking out there firewall functions on tomato?

It appears to not be functioning proper/at all on IPv6. A port scan found several open ports on my system.

A IPv4 scan shows nothing open and a IPv6 scan shows 88 and 548 open. Should be easy enough to fix, but be warned, tomato appears to not firewall ipv6 at all by default.
