Brilliiant for XP. Now does IPv6.

Good good

In reply to a post by XRaySpeX:

Are the netshs remembered or do I need to do them on every reboot?

It's remembered so rebooting will not undo the changes.

In reply to a post by XRaySpeX:

But Vista don't work with reg tweak. Does it need rebooting?

I don't remember having to reboot but it can't harm.

Are there some netshs for Vista?

I've never needed to play with netsh to get it working (in Windows 7) so I don't know about that.

Are you getting IPv6 sites using domain names, or only raw IPv6 addresses?

I'm an IPv6 tyro. I was just following your orders. I don't know any IPv6 domains.

However the ping -6 given earlier works thus:

C:\>ping -6 www.google.com

Maybe it takes longer to get to a long address .

Teredo is "best effort", certainly not optimised for performance, more just as a last resort when IPv4 is not available for the remote host.

Doesn't get round the issue if you don't have an IPv6 DNS server. I'm using PlusNet's own ones - I've always used ISP DNS servers with no problems.

Any recommendations? I assume I can just add one to my router ... Hmm, no obvious way to alter or add to them on the PN 582n.

You don't need one, since AAAA records can be fetched from IPv4 DNS servers just fine.

you guys ignored me

freenet6 much better than microsoft's ipv6.

Can't get Vista to work with IPv6.

In reply to a post by XRaySpeX:

I don't know then. I just loaded Vista in a virtual machine and "ping -6 www.google.com" worked with no system modifications at all.

You may have to do the command a few times though, since it takes Teredo a few seconds to automatically set the tunnel up after the first ipv6 request.

Edit: at some point it seems I did add the AddrConfigControl registry entry to the Vista virtual machine.
