Re: [IPv6] IPv6 Comcast Speedtest said by NetFixer:My guess would be a Netgear router. I have to reboot my WNR1000v2-VC about once a week because it loses IPv6 sync. The router's WAN and LAN, and attached devices still have valid looking IPv6 addresses, but they don't work anymore until I reboot the router, and it gets (and redistributes to its LAN devices) new IPv6 address assignments from Comcast. What version of OS do you have on the WNR1000v2-VC, I will start asking questions.. |

I am willing to work with whoever to torubleshoot why this is happening. Might very well be an issue on my end but I can do traceroutes and pings from looking glass sites back into my host.
For some reason the thought of using a COmcast looking glass site had not occurred to me if such a thing is available. |

Can you paste a traceroute to the speedtest server please. I was told that it should not be firewalled on our end. |

Was assuming that I was even hitting your server in the first place when I was getting the connecting then the waiting in the browser. However, the traceroute shows a different story.

When I clear DNS and try again I get a different ip almost every time. Some of the IP's traceroutes work and some do not. However, the web page never loads even if I leave it for 20 minutes. I have done some packet captures where the initial tcp handshake goes through but when the http get is done by the browser the comcast server never replies.

| reply to NetFixer said by NetFixer:said by NetDog:said by owlyn:Yes, had it backwards. 2001 on the WAN side, 2601 on the LAN side. I still couldn't get it to work right, so I set my router to 6to4 Tunnel and tried the readiness site, and it worked, so I changed it back to DHCP, and got the IPV6 addresses again, and now I'm fine. Readiness 10/10, speedtest 52 down/10.5 up (Blast). What type of router do you have? Sounds like you had to reset your settings to clear your DHCPv6 info. A little odd me so I would like to look into this. Router Type and version would be great start. My guess would be a Netgear router. I have to reboot my WNR1000v2-VC about once a week because it loses IPv6 sync. The router's WAN and LAN, and attached devices still have valid looking IPv6 addresses, but they don't work anymore until I reboot the router, and it gets (and redistributes to its LAN devices) new IPv6 address assignments from Comcast. Yes, it is a Netgear WNDR3400. I've had this problem before, and switching it to tunnel and back again fixes it. Don't have to reboot, but still, it shouldn't be happening. My symptoms are the same as yours (IP6 addresses all look good, but IP6 doesn't work). |

What version of OS do you have on the WNR1000v2-VC, I will start asking questions.. Here is the OpenWRT [KAMIKAZE (7.09)] OS version information: Linux version 2.6.15 (chao.zhang@dni-l-sw01) (gcc version 3.4.4 (OpenWrt-2.0)) #199 Tue Apr 17 12:29:38 EDT 2012
Here is the Comcast/Netgear firmware information: Hardware Version: WNR1000v2-VC Firmware Version: V1.2.2.56NA GUI Language Version: V1.0.0.71
EDIT: If you are going to be bugging the Comcast/Netgear WNR1000v2-VC firmware writers, please also ask them to fix the bug that was introduced with Firmware Version: V1.2.2.56NA that prevents doing port forwarding for port 80 if Remote Management is enabled. It does not matter what port is used for Remote Management; if it is enabled, you can't do port forwarding for port 80 (DMZ also blocks inbound port 80 if Remote Management is enabled). There is also a long standing bug in all of the WNR1000v2-VC firmware versions that prevents UDP port 123 from being port forwarded as well (that also does not work with DMZ either). -- A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

Don't have to reboot, but still, it shouldn't be happening. My symptoms are the same as yours (IP6 addresses all look good, but IP6 doesn't work). Actually, I can simply disable IPv6, save that setting, and then reselect DHCP for the IPv6 connection type, and the IPv6 connectivity resumes. But if I do it that way, the router actually keeps the old IPv6 address assignment along with the new IPv6 address assignment, so I prefer a reboot which provides a clean start. -- A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

For what its worth, if I try a ping or a traceroute, I get the same IP, which is 2001:558:1030:8:69:252:23:68 (the same IP that you get when you do a ping).
I'm wondering what happens if you try to do a trace to the IP directly? Does that work?
Could it be a DNS issue? I would think that a ping and trace route to the same host name would return the same IP.
nslookup does not appear to work on an IPv6 IP (at least for me). I was going to try that and see what it would come back with, but it did not return a result.
