Hey all,
I've just started playing with the Windows 8 Consumer Preview release and found that, although Win8 gets a DHCPv6 issued address, it can't even Ping over IPv6 let alone connect anywhere.
Is anyone else having difficulties with this or having success with Win8 and IPv6?
Win8 is running from VirtualBox with Bridged networking set; receives RADVD broadcasts and get's its address from a DHCPv6 server.
I have a similar setup with WinVista, and IPv6 works fine for that system.
FWIW, my host is Ubuntu.
