Re: IPv6 is too hard said by timcuth: it sounds like the current router is doing what it is supposed to do. That is my impression of your test results. However it would be nice to verify that with a known good IPv6 client. Any chance to borrow an IPv6 enabled laptop from a friend or coworker ?

Pelham, AL | Configure IPv6 on one of my sons' Macbook Pros? I guess that wouldn't be a "known good" client, either.

Ok. I think I am about ready to just give up on this. I like to keep things simple and, so far, I have never had to use more than one subnet.
I dont blame you........ This whole IPv6 thing may cause alot of problems! |

If you decide to use a pfSense gateway, let me know. I can "hook you up."  |

Pelham, AL | Looks pretty interesting. How does pfSense compare to Untangled? Does it require two NIC's?

kudos:4 | The old 1.2.3 release did but the new 2.0 release doesn't. If you used VLAN tagging you can get away with one NIC most likely in 1.2.3 though it might not like that. 2.0 would probably require VLAN tagging to properly route traffic with only one NIC. I also run pfsense since 1.2.1 and currently run 2.0 in most places now even though it's an RC still. |

It does.
Untangled is a great distro, but it's more of a transparent distro. It requires two NICs also. |

Pelham, AL | Thanks. I have a spare PC. I will try to get a second NIC into it and try pfSense or Untangled.
When you say "more transparent", what do you mean by that?

It's main purpose is to sit in between your firewall and your network, filtering traffic transparently. The routing function was a secondary feature that was added later. |
