Strange IPv6 issue that WON'T GO AWAY.

I have an Airport Extreme (w/ IPv6 support). I have Cox HSI which includes an automatic tunnel configuration. And it works great!

IPv6 for Windows worked rather well too for a good many months... then BOOM I notice IPv6 not working. I go to investigate. I swear Windows is now trying to make a 6to6to4 tunnel. Well there is no such thing so obviously I'm nuts or Windows is crazy!

I'll show you the ipconfig info below.

The two IP addresses..

Shouldn't be there.  They weren't there before when it worked. What is going on?

Make sure your airport isn't doing some sort of 6to4 thing.  I think Windows will also try to do 6to4 under certain conditions (not really sure what those are though).

You can make sure it's turned off in windows by doing: netsh int ipv6 6to4 set state=disabled

It'd also help to see the output of these commands:

netsh int ipv6 show routes
netsh int ipv6 show addr level=verbose

You may need to drop the equals sign, so it looks like


netsh int ipv6 6to4 set state disabled
