Re: Clear tubing for fibre cable? Further thoughts


[re: BarkingMad] [link to this post]
 
Despite sub zero temps, 2 guys from "M Group" arrived and installed with the help of some coffee but didn't want biscuits.

Cable ran down one side of the bay window, the across at just above ground level to the other side of the bay, connected to CSP, and then down the shared covered alley to the rear before entering a rear room. No fuss.

One of them tried to get my (now old) BT SH2 working on a non BT FTTP - but I pointed out I had my own router.

All appears fine, BQM setup for IP_V4 but having trouble with IP_V6. Seen this: https://www.thinkbroadband.com/guides/broadband-qual... but is there some magic?

Resolved.

I used the ip returned from the tracert tool

BQM IPv6 and Openwrt


[re: BarkingMad] [link to this post]
 
It isn’t resolved.

How do I find the correct ipv6 address?

I think Openwrt is using a virtual interface called “wan_6”

Perhaps I need to add the settings for ipv6 manually.

I will look at it tomorrow

That tool gives you the client address.

From a Linux client you can do

sudo traceroute thinkbroadband.com -6

There is hopefully a windows equivalent
