gregb:

What size prefix are Snap looking to give out to customers?

I am not exactly sure on the number, but APNIC has suggested that ISP's should be issuing a /64 to each customer tail.
That means you have millions and millions of addresses avaliable to you on a standard home connection because the remainder of the devices v6 address is made up of the devices mac address.

So its your isp's issued /64 + mac address = your device's v6 address.

The /64 could be a different number. The subnetting confuses me - im still trying to work out the best way to subnet my v4 space lol.

Currently Snap are assigning a /48 using DHCPv6-PD, out of which you'd have each subnet as a /64 so that autoconfiguration works.

Hi guys,

One of the reasons I just switched to snap was it's IPv6 support. It's also the primary reason I chose the D-Link DSL-2740B - it advertised support. It turns out it needed a very buggy firmware update to enable that... anyway.

Unfortunately, I've tried all the settings possible, and I can not get IPv6 to connect. I'm not nearly as knowledgeable as the other residents of this thread, but I'm pretty confident the settings it's on now are correct (they're basically the default anyway.)

I took some screenshots, but I'll have to mangle the URL because I'm a new user... nice spam protection guys.

So if someone who knows what they're doing could have a glance over my config and help if there's anything wrong, I'd very much appreciate it.

Thanks!

What other options do you have under IPv6 Connection Type?

check here first to make sure your ipv6 is enabled

type about:config in the address bar and then look for network.dns.disableIPv6 if it says true , change it to false .

Common sense is not as common as you think.

Hi, I think you misread my post. The problem is that my modem is not connecting to the IPv6 internet. It has nothing to do with Firefox.

Thanks anyway :)

Thanks for the reply. So I did that, and immediately this JS message appeared:

Good english as always.

Anyway, afterwards, another row appeared in the connection status page:

Predictably, stuck on Connecting.

Do you think there's any point hitting up Snap support over this?

Hmmm not sure, i think that IPv6 support is only via email at support@snap.net.nz. I remember reading that somewhere.

Most of the devices advertising "IPv6 ready" etc. aren't really. They are missing basic features for IPv6 or its buggy. My suggestion would be to get a bridging modem then a router like the upcoming PFsense 2.1 or smoothwall that you can run on any PC to do all of the IPv6 work.
