General Questions & Suggestions / Re: Zone limits was changed?
Last post by patthoyts - April 22, 2026, 04:06:18 AM
I had the same issue, a re-login did not resolve the problem but clearing the dns.he.net cookies and then logging in again did sort it out.

IPv6 on Windows / Re: unreachable from outside
Last post by cnsh - April 20, 2026, 09:48:09 PM
according to this thread on reddit, I deleted IfIso key from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\RestrictedInterfaces\, and it works on private profile too. Problem solved? No.

Another issue from deleting that comes at some windows features ending up bricked completely. Advanced windows firewall, media streaming settings, and various other stuffs won't start and gets bricked. Is there a way that it won't brick any of the windows services while getting that IfIso removed?

I run a DLNA server from my local, so I need this NIC to be in a private profile.
Someone please explain why this works and how I can make it also work in private profile

Hi,

I just finished Sage Level in the certification. What Do I need to do to be able to unblock SMTP? I currently do not see an a 'unblock' button under tunnel details -> advanced.

BR,

Solved!!!
Changed my NIC's network profile from private to public, now everything works as it should be.
Someone explain why this happens although I have allowed IPv6 traffic on all private, public, and domain profiles.

slight update.
I tried making a rule both on inbound&outbound to accept any kind of traffic at any kind of protocol, but it still doesn't open v6 port.
Instead, the connection works flawless when I disable the firewall completely from the control panel.

I'm still researching for further solutions. Trying to log the firewall, but the logfile stays at 0KB and completely blank whatever I do. I might try checking that log tomorrow to see if it does record anything at all.

EDIT: I solved the issue by changing the nic's network profile

The ping is nice, but we usually check the actual traffic received from the other side of the tunnel.  If we've seen zero bytes from the remote end in that time period, the tunnel is eligible for removal.  Our routine ping checks should run that up if the remote side is configured, so functionally not too far off.

Quote from: paalbo on June 11, 2024, 11:16:28 AMLogin to your https://dns.he.net/ account and add LOC and the coordinates for your location.
Please clarify, should I have my own registered domain? Does it matter where I register domain?

Your tunnel must respond to pings, and if it is silent for 90 days, it is deleted.  I don't remember whether the pings are via IPv4 or IPv6, but it is considered "best practice" to allow both.  For IPv6, the tunnel endpoint is used, not the routed /64 or /48.  I do not recall whether changing the IPv4 tunnel endpoint also resets the timeout period.
