I am typing this, because there is a lot of misinformation on this, especially about the dynamic DNS part.
The tunnel
Go to the router web panel and IPv6 under advanced settings.
Basic Config
- Connection type: Tunnel 6in4
- Server IPv4-address: Server IPv4 Address from IPv6 tunnel endpoints in tunnelbroker.net tunnel details
- Client IPv6 address: Client IPv6 address from IPv6 tunnel endpoints in tunnelbroker.net tunnel details
- IPv6 prefix length: 64
- Tunnel MTU: 0
- Tunnel TTL: 255
IPv6 LAN Setting
- LAN IPv6 Prefix: Routed /64 from Routed IPv6 Prefixes from tunnelbroker.net tunnel details
- LAN Prefix Length: 64
IPv6 DNS Setting
- IPv6 DNS Server 1: 2001:470:20::2 (this is the one tunnelbroker.net says for me)
- IPv6 DNS Server 2: 2001:4860:4860::8888 Google DNS 1
- IPv6 DNS Server 3: 2001:4860:4860::8844 Google DNS 2
Auto Configuration Setting
- Enable Router Advertisement: Enable
Dynamic DNS
Go to Advanced Settings, WAN, DDNS
- Enable the DDNS CLient: Yes
- Server: WWW.TUNNELBROKER.NET
- Host Name: tunnel ID from tunnelbroker.net tunnel details
- User Name or E-mail address: *username of tunnelbroker.net
- Password or DDNS Key: Update Key from tunnel details under the Advanced tab
All guides I have seen say that username is user ID from index of tunnelbroker.net and password is account password, but that doesn’t work for me. This is how I got it working guessing the details based on Example Update URL at the same place you got the Update Key.
Now it should either work or not.
- If it gives error saying something about trying again later, you are doing something wrong.
- If it gives error about endpoint IP not changed since the last update, it works.
- If you don’t get error, it doesn’t work.
Now I would suggest you to go to Administration and from there Restore/Save/UPload Setting and clicking the “Save setting”s “Save” button so in case something bad happens you can easily restore the working state.
And I probably shouldn’t need to say this, but I will say it anyway: don’t use admin/admin as username/password combination!
