Title: Problem connecting to HE Tunnel in Windows but not in Linux
Post by: maguirre on March 14, 2012, 09:31:59 AM

Hello everyone I have searched this forums trying to find a solution to the same problem that a lot of people are having

I am unable to ping ipv6.google.com or even the end point of the tunnel (2001:470:1f10:1362::1).

I am running a Windows 7 x64 machine and I am trying to setup a tunnel.

I am behind a NAT however I know my router (Linksys running DD-WRT) doesn't block proto == 41 because I have a Virtual machine running ubuntu that doesn't have issues connecting to my HE tunnel

Any idea of what I am doing wrong?

For reference I have used the following commands

Code Select


netsh interface teredo set state disabled
netsh interface ipv6 add v6v4tunnel IP6Tunnel 192.168.1.111 209.51.181.2
netsh interface ipv6 add address IP6Tunnel 2001:470:1f10:1362::2
netsh interface ipv6 add route ::/0 IP6Tunnel 2001:470:1f10:1362::1

my ipconfig is as follows:

I'd suggest this first: (this won't fix your problem)

Code Select


netsh int ipv6 isatap set state disabled
netsh int ipv6 6to4 set state disabled

You say your router is passing proto41...how did you tell it to do that? I ask because maybe you had to specify an IP to allow traffic to and the IP on your windows machine is different than your Ubuntu machine

Thanks for your response.

I didn't need need to configure anything except turn off DMZ after that my Ubuntu VM tunnel just worked using the HE instructions
