I recently tested the 6to4 IPv6 support in the latest AVM Firmware for Fritz!Box Fon WLAN 7270. Now I tried to setup a tunnel to SixXS which failed during my first tests. The Fritz Box didn’t complain about the fact that my SixXS tunnel didn’t have any subnet allocated. Once a subnet was added to my tunnel, the Fritz!Box was able to setup the tunnel. I had my tunnel set to “6in4-heartbeat”, I haven’t tested “AYIYA”. I also found another IPv6 enabled website: ripe.net, quite obvious at second view 😀

My Fritz Box runs IPv6
I installed the latest firmware (54.04.94-13992) for the AVM Fritz!Box Fon WLAN 7270 released on 31 march 2009. The 6to4 configuration just works out of the box on my DSL from EPT. Unfortunately EPT doesn’t run an own 6to4-relay so they currently route me to a 7 hops away Hurrican Electric 6to4-relay. I didn’t get the SIXXS support to work yet, I will retry it on some other day. Continue reading “My Fritz Box runs IPv6”

.Tel privacy and TelFriends
The .Tel infrastructure offers the possibility to protect some (or all) entries of your .Tel domain. By protecting an entry you make a visibile to a choosen group of people. (This is technically solved by encrypting the content of the NAPTR record.) In order to setup a friend status with a .Tel domain, you need to register at http://telfriends.tel/login_input.action, once you have verified your account, you can start requesting friend status.

.tel Whois Service
In an earlier article I reported about the missing .tel Whois service. This is not true anymore, the Whois service is available on the Telnic website http://telnic.org/whois.html.
voipgate.tel is online
Yesterday we setup one of the first real .tel domains, voipgate.tel. The content is constantly evolving, so check it out 😀
Many thanks to euroDNS for making this happen!
UPDATE: eurodns.tel is now live as well.
Thomson ST 585 bridging in routing mode
EPT uses the Thomson ST 585 as ADSL Modem for their IPTV offer. EPT loads a special configuration onto the Thomson, which splits the 4 port Ethernet switch into 2 partitions. Ports 3&4 are bridged to an extra ATM path and channel (VCI/VPI) which gives access to the IPTV platform and network. Ports 1&2 give access to the Internet, by default the Thomson connects via PPPoE to the Internet. Continue reading “Thomson ST 585 bridging in routing mode”
