After reading this entire thread and following all the links, am I to correctly assume that there is no way to enable IPv6 functions on my WRT54G v6 (running v24-sp2 build 13064 micro generic)? My first clue is that there is no check box on the Administration>Management page to enable/disable IPv6. All of the other builds seem to be for 4 MB flash - is there no way to make it work on a 2 MB flash unit? Thanks for your help!
Hi. Sorry for the tangent, but I'm also having this problem, but with an official generic standard build.
That table says standard generic supports IPv6, though for v24 it doesn't work by default, and the linked page says it has to be turned on by going to the Administration Management page to enable IPv6. Well, I'm running DD-WRT v24-sp2 (04/23/10) std - build 14311 on my WRT54GS v3, and I don't see that switch, nor the radvd switch on that page. I don't think I had one when I was running "bad" build 13064, either.
Am I clueless? (Quite possibly) Or did IPv6 not get built into these versions? (possibly) Or something else? (meh)
p.s. I can't seem to find a changelog page anywhere on the main site, so have no idea what's new with 14311, or if it has fixed the issues with 13064. It does seem to have marginally better reception, though I could be imagining that. Wonder why the router db keeps recommending the "bad" build, though, when this newer one has been out a week?

I'm currently running v24-sp2 (04/23/10) std - build 14311 on a D-Link DIR-615 C2 and no IPv6 here as well. There doesn't seem to be any IPv6 modules in this build. I wonder which build has IPv6 support in it and supports this router..hrm..
startup
ip tunnel add he-ipv6 mode sit remote xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ttl 64
ip link set he-ipv6 up
ip addr add 2001:xxx:xxx:xxx::2/64 dev he-ipv6
ip route add ::/0 dev he-ipv6
ip addr add 2001:yyy:yyyy::1/64 dev br0
Only problem i have is that my desktop doesn't get an IPv6 with DHCPv6 (only manual works)
I'm also struggling with ip6tables and don't know how to get that working.
The tuts i found are all talking about vlan1 etc (which my router doesn't have when doing ifconfig)

I am currently using Crushedhat's mega build on my WRT350N to participate in Comcast's 6RD trial. I also would like to see an updated build for this. Shoot... I'd even be willing to pay for a version of DD-WRT with more native IPV6 support!! _________________ +WRT350N running DD-WRT v24

Well, this is quite baffling to me. I had a WRT54G v3 that was working great on IPv6 using the ancient Crushedhat build 10070. It was working fine with the following setup (addresses tweaked, of course):
Code:
# IPv6 Tunnel Settings
ip tunnel add he-ipv6 mode sit remote 66.220.18.42 local 22.33.44.55 ttl 64
ip link set he-ipv6 up
ip addr add 2001:1470:c:1234::2/64 dev he-ipv6
ip route add ::/0 dev he-ipv6
ip addr add 2001:1470:f111:abcd::1/64 dev br0
radvd -C /tmp/radvd.conf start
# Firewall Rules for IPv6
iptables -I INPUT 2 -p ipv6 -i vlan1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -s 66.220.18.42 -i vlan1 -j ACCEPT
#radvd
interface br0 {
AdvSendAdvert on;
prefix 2001:1470:f111:abcd::/64
{
AdvOnLink on;
AdvAutonomous on;
};
};
This worked like a charm and served both my wired and wireless computers. Now I have acquired a WRT54G-TM, and have 15508 mega installed on it. With the same code above, IPv6 works for my wired clients, but not my wireless clients. As an aside, it is interesting to note that I do not have to use all of the extra code that is listed elsewhere in this thread (such as insmod ipv6, etc.) to get it to work, however, as I stated, my wireless clients are not getting IPv6 addresses. Anyone have any ideas as to why it's working for wired and not wireless clients?
