I'm using Windows XP with SP3.
I signed up at Tunnelbroker. I got the following error:
Error: Your IPv4 endpoint is unreachable or unstable. Please make sure ICMP is not blocked.
I googled "enable icmp windows xp" and did the following:
Control Panel > Network Connections > Right-clicked on my connection, Properties > Advanced > Windows Firewall, Settings > Advanced > ICMP, Settings > Check Allow incoming echo request
I got the same error again.
I went to go6.net, registered, and installed the Gateway6 client.
I was unable to share my internet connection (ethernet behind a router on a cable modem) with that connection.
It kept saying:
Internet Connection Sharing cannot be established.
A LAN connection is already configured with the IP address that is required for automatic IP addressing.
I gave up on that.
In uTorrent > Options > Prefences > General, I clicked Install IPv6/Teredo and nothing happened AFAIK.
I ran these two commands in Windows:
netsh interface ipv6 install
netsh interface ipv6 set teredo client
And looked at this forum:
http://forum.go6.net/viewtopic.php?t=99
I added 3653 to the port forwarding settings in my router (since apparently Gateway6 uses that port to establish the tunnel).
Gateway6 was able to connect to authenticated.freenet6.net with my username and password.
Finally, go6.net showed my IPv6 address (after restarting Firefox). And I saw the flying turtle at kame.net.
But the following newsservers don't work in Grabit:
reader.ipv6.xsnews.nl
newszilla6.xs4all.nl
news.ipv6.eweka.nl
I already have an Astraweb account (that works in Grabit), but only use it sparingly.
I also ran this command with no effect:
netsh interface portproxy add v4tov6 listenport=119 connectaddress=news.ipv6.eweka.nl connectport=119
That was my experience. YMMV.
