I Bolded what I changed ( I removed the \042).. I also changed both of the HTTP to HTTPS. It now completes the script (according to IPv6.log) but I still dont have a lastHEUpdate.log file
IPV6.google.com works fine now from a browser.. So I am assuming its working now... Odd thing is Windows 7 still shows IPv6 as no connectivity (No Internet Access) on the status of the Network card... Is that normal?
lastHEUpdate is the result of the cron job. you won't see one until cron runs at least one cycle.
do you see a radvd.conf file?
go to aaaa.test-ipv6.com for a thorough test to see if ipv6 is working for you.
the \042 prints a " (double quotation mark) character in the cron script. tbh, I'm not sure how that would effect it. But if it works, it works :)
A couple of hours ago I manually made the wget line and sent it using http, it seemed to work fine for me. Comment out those 3 lines in question and see if it continues if the ipv6 test fails.
As for windows 7, sorry can't help you there. My household only uses mac osx and ubuntu linux. I think the last windows I've used was XP a couple of years ago
This is a test of your ISP's resolver (instead of a test of your host). If this test passes, your DNS server (often ran by your ISP) is capable of reaching IPV6-only DNS authoritative servers on the internet. This is not critical (at this time) for you to reach sites via IPv6.
Thankyou for all your help, you have been very helpful in getting me to solve what was causing it.. I'm not worried about the IpV6 not showing connectivity in windows as it works on all three systems connected to the router.
Im sure thats another script for another time.. hahaha
Thanks again.. this was a cause of much hairloss..
1. do you have an account and tunnel created on the site
2. did you enter in your tunnel details correctly into the script?
3. did you leave out any quotation marks or add any spaces when you entered account details
4. can the router connect to the internet properly on boot?
5. check the /tmp dir for any log files generated by the script.
1. do you have an account and tunnel created on the site yes
2. did you enter in your tunnel details correctly into the script? yes
3. did you leave out any quotation marks or add any spaces when you entered account details , i put the quotations with no spaces
4. can the router connect to the internet properly on boot? yes internet is working fine
5. check the /tmp dir for any log files generated by the script.no idea how to do this [/b]
i been trying for a week to setup an ipv6 tunnel , by the way this is my firmware Firmware: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (11/02/09) std
one other question when i make the tunnel my ipv4 endpoint is my ip address that im viewing from right ?
Do you know how to use telnet or ssh? SSH is better, but not all firmwares have it. But you should have telnet at the very least.
1. Enable either ssh or telnet in the router settings. If you have windows, google and download Putty. Mac/Linux has an ssh and telnet client built in.
2. Point the client to your router's ip address. It'll ask you for your username and pw. Use the same account info you use to login to the router's settings on the browers
3. enter these 4 commands one by one to see what the log has. some files might not exist or might be empty.

wow this makes no sense i keep getting login incorrect im using the right name and password ,telnet is enable , i tried with putty and telnet with ubuntu . i changed the password to access the router
