Re: [Internet] IPv6 just appeared on my connection

No U.S. servers?




They seem to know it is a U.S. IP address:

Not sure why people are posting about non-native IPv6 connections. All IPv6 addresses that start with 2001 are reserved for Teredo tunnellng.

So why is mine not identified as a "Teredo tunnel"?

I believe all IPv6 addresses that start with 2001:0000::/23 are reserved for teredo tunneling, not the entire 2001:: range...

True, but going through Hurricane Electric means you're using a Teredo tunnel.

What? My router is lying to me?


This is Teredo?

I also have 2001:5a8:4:a4f0::/60 from my I ISP; but have not yet explored how to overcome a shortcoming in th ASUS RT-AC66U which prevents configuring their 6in4 tunnel. Or are you saying "magazines are clips" (they are not).

No, Hurricane electric is a 6in4 tunnel to a specific server. Teredo uses anycast to reach an IPv6 relay.

If that's what your router is saying, then no, it's not lying to you. 6in4 is a tunnel. It is not native IPv6, which is what this thread is about. For native IPv6, you want it configured to DHCP-PD.

Wrong,,,HE tunnels are 6in4. Toredo is a Microsoft tunnel pseudo interface/adapter built into windows and has nothing to do with HE tunnels.

You can disable or complelely uninstall Toredo from Windows with no effect on an HE tunnel.

Are you using TWC DNS servers? If so, your IPv6 connection is NOT from TWC.

There are a bunch of posts in this thread that are OT.

How do you figure TWC DNS usage equals IPv6 connection not from TWC? Looking up the IPv6 prefix posted in the pic, it belongs to TWC: »www.tcpiputils.com/browse/ipv6-a···4:2000::

You can get an IPv6 address from TWC, use TWC DNS servers for IPv4 lookup, and other DNS servers for IPv6 lookup if TWC doesn't support it yet. I was doing that with my Charter connection.

sh1's IPv6 IP address is from 2604:2000:104c::/48. How is that not a TWC IPv6 IP address?

Who is


I take "RRNY" to be "Road Runner, New York"; with the understanding that what used to be "Road Runner Internet" is now TWC Internet.

I have an IPv6 address now as well, inside the 2605:E000::/32 block. I can ping and traceroute over it, but it doesn't look like anything else is working. Will continue playing.

It's working now. My laptop somehow still had the old he.net tunnel IPs, even though I haven't had it set up on the router in a while. See attached.

I just noticed a working IPv6 address on my router last night. I'm in Brooklyn, NY with an SB6141 and my router's running CeroWRT, a bufferbloat-focused fork of OpenWRT.

After some fiddling with DHCPv6 settings, I managed to get a /60 prefix - it would appear that you have to request one via DHCPv6-PD options.

I'll supply more details when I get a chance, but this should be a lot of fun to play with.

I am at my gf's house and it says ipv4 only.

so help me out guys so I can set it up for them :)

The modem IP mode listed is for the management of the modem, not the end user IP.

So how do i set it up? On the router rt-n66u I have it set for dhcp in ipv6 section.

Thanks drew

No idea. Being that this has been available for over a decade it isn't interesting and there is plenty of info regarding tunneled setups elsewhere. What is of interest and the focus of the thread is native service; as in dual-stack.

A tunnel is a tunnel whether it is 6in4, Teredo, or any other mechanism.

I specifically commented about 6to4 and Teredo but what I said also holds for any tunneling. Because they're different protocols. So I can call a dog a cat because it has 4 legs?

Re: [Internet] IPv6 just appeared on my connection

I need a scorecard; it was another poster who specified, "Teredo" in the context of reserved IPv6 prefixes.

I've found that if you don't renew often enough they stop routing the /64 but not the /128. I'm not sure what often enough is. More than 24 hours but less than 72.

Which part of forever isn't forever?
 eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qlen 1000
    inet6 2604:6000::1/64 scope global 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qlen 1000
    inet6 2604:6000::4/128 scope global 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

Oh that's interesting. I tried rebooting both my router and modem but it would not come back. When it first went down my router was showing it still had the /64 but not the /128, but after the reboot both were gone. The next day I managed to get it back by disabling then re-enabling IPv6 on my router (for some reason just rebooting wouldn't work), but now it's gone again even though the DHCPv6 server is giving me a lease...

When it's working trace to the /128 and any address in the /64. Here the ingres network is 2604:6000:0:4:2006. I suspect you'll be able to tell if they're still advertising.
