It’s a great wireless-N router that can be found really inexpensively, 8 MB flash, 64 MB memory. If your router doesn’t meet these requirements, buy the E3000 mentioned next.Support at least DD-WRT v24-sp2 or newer.Alternatively if your router has USB ports, you may be able to use a flash drive with it and get around this issue even if it’s a 4 MB router. The standard image no longer leaves enough room on a 4 MB flash to have a jffs filesystem added, which you need for this project. Have at least a 6+ MB flash but preferably 8 MB or better.The “mini” images are not compatible with IPv6. Support running a DD-WRT “standard” image.There are a few things though your router must meet the following requirements:
#HOW TO DET UP PORT FORWARDING PLANEPLOTTER DDWRT FREE#
What you’re going to need is a router compatible with DD-WRT a free linux-based OS specifically designed to go on consumer cable and DSL modem hardware. First, perhaps your existing home router/modem can be put to good use.
Four options I’d recommend depending on how feature-rich of a solution you’d like: This service is provided by them for FREE! You will need some new hardware for your house most likely, but perhaps you can get by with what you already have. Your IPv4 traffic will flow like normal, your IPv6 traffic will traverse a 6in4 tunnel to Hurricane Electric where it will then go on its way like any other routed traffic across the internet. So, what to do? Get an IPv6 tunnel via Hurricane Electric’s Tunnel Broker service, and then hook your home router/modem into it. Their 4G LTE cell network has great IPv6 so they have knowledge in-house, so that makes me think the equipment swap/cost factor may be the real issue. The rumor is that they’re not pushing very hard to get it done because it would mean swapping out a LOT of shitty ActionTec modems since they ones they deployed for years were not IPv6 capable. They’ve been giving empty promises of it ‘coming soon’ for years now and there’s nothing to show for it other than some brief rumors in 2012 that they were testing it in some employees’ homes. It’s actually pretty decent from a speed and stability perspective, if we’re talking IPv4, but thus far their IPv6 is non-existent. Setting up IPv6 with a Cisco 1811/1811WĪs I’m sure many are, I’m stuck with not many options for high speed broadband service just two options for my neighborhood so I went with the lesser evil, Verizon FiOS.Setting up IPv6 with DD-WRT (and a Linksys/Cisco E3000).Prerequisites for adding your own home IPv6 service.Background on why you might need to deal with IPv6 tunneling (basically when your ISP sucks).
