Enable NAT if no public IPv4 (or preferably get public IPv4), Next.Plug in router, your computer should get an IPv4 address by DHCP.RA and DHCPv6 will be enabled once logged in, and it's been assigned your block of IPs. IPv6 is mostly configured automatically when the router logs into us. The details below don't actually involve much IPv6, just a tick box. Losing PPP for any reason causes the Comtrend to forget IPv6 until it next re-syncs or is power cycled. We've yet to get the 3G working - the router sees that a dongle is plugged in, and shows signal status, but does not seem to connect - tried a Vodaphone SIM and an A&A SIM. IPv6 is the current version of internet protocol so it seems odd that it is disabled by default. The router seems to fall-back to only IPv4 operation if the ISP does not support IPv6, so this seems safe. We think IPv6 should be enabled by default on WAN and LAN route announce If changes are made, such as adding/changing IPv6 block, then a reboot is required. Router is not renew/rebinding the DHCPv6 on the WAN on PPP restart
COMTREND WIRELESS ROUTER SETUP MANUAL
Manual configuration is required on the computers. Router announcement on LAN is not providing DNS servers These will need to be set manually in the router This is important to avoid waste, but also to allow multi-site customers to manage their /48, giving different sites different /64 blocks.ĭHCPv6 on WAN/PPP does not request IPv6 DNS servers Prefix delegation via DHCPv6 only works with a /48Īt the moment lines will have to be set with a /48 and we'll route the whole block. (which will loose access if done from the WAN)

The work around is to remove the WAN settings and re-add them. When editiong the WAN settings (WAN Service), the IPv6 enabled option will be forgotten about and disabled! Editing other pages is ok though. IPv6 in PPPoE mode is forgotten when editing WAN settings

This is critical for us and other UK ISPs as PPPoA is the preferred mode. Although the router does work, there are some bug reports/feature requests that we have passed on to Comtrend.
