Netgear N300 router configuration
Shadow Hawkins on Friday, 14 January 2011 19:59:23
Hi All, new to IPv6
I'm trying setup a static tunnel to my home router.
The Netgear N300 (WNR3500v2) supports multiple modes of IPv6.
I have the following options for Fixed IP.
WAN Setup
IPv6 Address/Prefix Length
: : : : : : : /
Default IPv6 Gateway
: : : : : : :
Primary DNS
: : : : : : :
Secondary DNS
I did get the tunnel ip but i'm a bit confused about the Gateway and DNS info.
Anyone care to provide some assistance.
Thanks

Gateway is the ::1 address of your tunnel
DNS is the address of any IPv6 enabled DNS server

Thanks for the info Carl,
I ended up using the xs4all DNS servers (only ones I could find)
However the tunnel doesn't seem to be working properly.
I can do a ping6 to the ::2 adress (routers adress) and I do get an IPv6 allocated to my mac in the same subnet as the router.
However a ping6 to ::1 doesn't seem to work nor any other ipv6.
I cannot ping6 to my ::2 adress from outside in as well.
Any ideas?

You need to request a subnet (/48) and configure /64s out of that for your local network, you can't use the /64 from the tunnel.

Hi Jeroen,
Ok so that would clarify why I cannot get outside.
What It doesn't explain why I cannot ping the ::2 from another external IPv6 server (a friend has one).

Windows Firewall per-default filters ICMP requests and as such you won't ping.

I'm using Mac OS X 10.6.6.
Its not using stealth mode and the router is set to respond to pings.

The <tunnel>::2 is on the netgear, you'll need to check for firewall options there, most likely those are turned on.

I'm still having issues.
I've setup the router as follows:
WAN Setup
IPv6 Address/Prefix Length
tunnel::2/64
Default IPv6 Gateway
tunnel::1
Primary DNS
xs4all:99
Secondary DNS
xs4all::66
LAN Setup
IP Address Assignment
Auto Config
IPv6 Address/Prefix Length
subnet::1/64
Disbled all firewall stuff I could find:
Disable Port Scan and DoS Protection
NAT filtering is open
Respond to Ping on Internet Port on.
But still on my mac I get the following:
ping6 2001:610:600:818::2
PING6(56=40+8+8 bytes) subnet:eca4 --> tunnel::2
16 bytes from tunnel::2, icmp_seq=0 hlim=64 time=3.386 ms

2 subnet::1 3161.209 ms !A 3070.899 ms !A 3072.160 ms !A
I'm completely puzzeled what I'm doing wrong here. Any other clues?

Problem is, I think you read it wrong.
'Fixed' is for if your ISP gives you an IPV6 address over the line.
'6to4' might be useful but it barely has settings so I don't think it works for tunnelbrokers.
'6to4' allows you to set the IPV4 endpoint on the WAN side
and on the LAN last 4 (of 8) parts of the address.

Why don't you list some IP addresses so we can do some troubleshooting?
Is your ISP passing protocol41? (I assume you're doing a 6in4 tunnel)

Since he posted here he wants to use the SixXS tunnelbroker,
which is not supported on a Netgear default firmware.
Only IPv6 from your own ISP is supported at this time.

Hi Guys,
Sorry for the late reply.
Indeed wanted use the sixxs tunnelbroker.
My ISP doens't currently support IPV6.
From Franks comment the netgear doesn't support the tunnel broker.
Kinda pisses me off since they sell it as a full IPV6 compliant router...
So, is there a way to get ipv6 working without resorting to running tunnel software on my macs.
I don't consider a PC with 2 nics an option.

You need a tunnel somewhere...either on your router or on one of your macs.
You don't need to have two nic's to make it work...one nic would work fine.

I understand that I need an tunnel daemon running somewhere,
How would you supply a subnet using a ipv6 tunnel without a second NIC?

You might have the following setup:
PC1 --+
PC2 --+------ RTR ---- Internet IPv4 ---- PoP ----- Internet IPv6
PC3 --+
So effectively you have all PCs (or whatever devices) connected to a Router which performs NAT to the Internet.
You create a tunnel from PC3 (or 1 or 2) which does goes over the NAT to the Internet and then to the PoP.
Then you announce the subnet from PC3 onto the local network and PC1+PC2. Packets for PC1 + PC2 will then travel the local network to PC3 then enter to the tunnel on PC3 to the PoP and go to the IPv6 Internet.
Thus for IPv4 RTR is your router, while for IPv6 PC3 is your router.

So I guess, you run a AYIYA tunnel on PC3.
I can give that a shot.
