Rogers has not updated their infrastructure to handle IPv6 yet.

All DOC3 CMTS support IPv6 and most of the stuff upstream from there should have acquired IPv6 capabilities some 5+ years ago either via firmware upgrade or replacement. This late into the IPv6 game (the IPv6 migration was supposed to start a whole decade ago), the lack of IPv6 has more to do with being lazy (if it ain't broke, don't fix it - most consumer routers don't support it anyhow) than lack of hardware support from the carrier side of things.

Right now, I am downloading two torrents and between the ~200 peers I am connected to, I see only 5-6 IPv6 peers

Hey guys, is there a new build of tomato-mlppp with ipv6 that I could use? The fixppp.org site doesn't seem to have the latest version there.

Any eta on some Tomato-ND with ipv6?

reply to vitesse
Will there be any IPv6 testing on cable connections in the near future?

reply to TSI Gabe
Thanks.

I now use zeroshell/mlppp and have not configured ipv6 on it.

reply to vitesse
Your old login still works, so you can switch between them at will.

If you're using Tomato you can just leave your IPv6 address in the router and it won't harm anything.

As I need a static IP i would like to go back with my IPV4 Login.

Can we simply go on our ipv4 login or Teksavvy need to change something on our config?

Will Teksavvy offer static ipv4 on the ipv6 package one day?

Without any understanding of the ISP side of things, I would guess the routes are configured when the PPP link is brought up.

I don't see where the link-local address comes in. A route only needs the prefix and the outgoing interface, and doesn't need the link-local address...

reply to TSI Gabe
Is still some place for IPv6?
I'm I in the correct forum?

Hey guys,

I was wondering, out of curiosity, how is the routing for the consumers /56 blocks is working on the TekSavvy side?

How is the routing for those blocks configured? The link local address of the consumer router on the PPP link could be anything. Is the route dynamically configured each time the PPPoE session is established?

Thanks

reply to TSI Gabe
Hi,

I saw, somewhere earlier in that thread, someone asking how to get it to work on Mac OS X.

Here is what I had to do:

Before establishing the PPPoE connection:

sudo sysctl -w net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv=1
 

sudo route add -inet6 default -interface ppp0
 

net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv=1
 

#!/bin/sh
route add -inet6 default -interface ${IFNAME}

west coast and us in alberta too

I'm here waiting in calgary for the move to ipv6!!

reply to TSI Gabe
Any update on west coast IPv6?

reply to shwatkin
Are you able to provide any logs for this setup? I am curious to see if the Dlink supports the ipv6cp setup etc .. etc. I just quickly went to their emulator site and checked some options out I would say bout time of them to include the ipv6 stuff lol. I got a feeling you mixed up a couple settings in that ipv6 setup esp on the wan side.

reply to TSI Gabe
Has there been any consideration for establishing a tunnel broker on TSIs network to allow 6in4 tunnels for the cable users? So that cable users can also take advantage of TSI's native v6 transit.
