hi i'm trying to learn this ipv6 thing. i have configured the computer using windows vista according to the instructions and i keep getting "not passed" on the explorer test ipv6 connectivity. I created a tunnel and still nothing. I need someone with more expertise on this to lend a hand
many thanks

Your tunnel must not be up

Are you behind nat?  If so, did you later the commands you used to reflect the correct ip address?

[johnceg]

i am using an AT&T modem that i think uses NAT. I have tried ' ping ipv6.he.net' from the command line and get back "could not find host ping"

[cholzhauer]

Please post the output of ipconfig and the commands you used to create the tunnel

[johnceg]

ipconfig

Please post the commands you used to create the tunnel

[johnceg]

yes sir im trying to locate the advanced page which had them

[johnceg]

does the advanced page with the commands "go away" once you execute the commands?

[cholzhauer]

Shouldn't. Check under tunnel details

[johnceg]

ah.. ok many thanks.. i feel like an idiot

[johnceg]

tunnel[1-5]                                                   routed/64                        /48
johnceg-1.tunnel.tserv9.chi1.ipv6.he.net    2001:470:1f11:1168::/64    None

[cholzhauer]

Not that

Click on your tunnel name, then click on example configurations.

Is that what you used to create your tunnel?

[johnceg]

here we go :
netsh interface teredo set state disabled
netsh interface ipv6 add v6v4tunnel interface=IP6Tunnel 99.108.19.241 184.105.253.14
netsh interface ipv6 add address IP6Tunnel 2001:470:1f10:1168::2
netsh interface ipv6 add route ::/0 IP6Tunnel 2001:470:1f10:1168::1

[cholzhauer]

As I figured

Go back to the page where you got those commands and look below where it says "note"

[johnceg]

it stated that if i was behind a firewall i need to locate my ip4 address from my DHCP service,
so when i used the ipconfig it showed my ip4 address as
192.168.1.66
rather then what is listed
99.108.19.241
is that assumption correct?
and that is what i need ot change?
