Oct 12 19:43:29 <sixwheeledbeast> Sicelo: Worked on a TPLINK Archer today which had IPv6 Tunnel options you required. Was in Advanced > Network > IP Tunnel maybe check if your router has this option (Not keen on TP stuff menu structure is garbage)
Oct 12 21:15:32 <sicelo> Yes sixwheeledbeast. that's where i was setting it. but it wasn't working. 
Oct 12 21:16:26 <sixwheeledbeast> sicelo: I didn't see that option. There are options for 6in4 there?
Oct 12 21:16:49 <sicelo> the problem with  my tplink is that the only tunneling protocol it supports is 6rd, but tunnelbroker does not support this particular protocol 
Oct 12 21:21:24 <sixwheeledbeast> sicelo: It seemed that the TPLINK I saw had DS-Lite, 6in4 and 6rd. Having seen how weird the menu structure was today it made me think the option could easily be missed or misconfigured.
Oct 12 21:21:50 <sicelo> mine doesn't have those. only 6rd
Oct 12 21:22:05 <sicelo> so you were working on a slightly better one :)
Oct 12 21:22:30 <sicelo> the menu structed seems to be the same as on a few DLink's i've used
Oct 12 21:22:42 <sixwheeledbeast> It seems you needed to create a "WAN Profile" and then like this tunnel to it. I would double check.
Oct 12 21:22:55 <sixwheeledbeast> d-link :shudder:
Oct 12 21:23:25 <sicelo> what routers you use most? 
Oct 12 21:23:28 <sixwheeledbeast> s/like/link/
Oct 12 21:25:21 <sixwheeledbeast> I use Draytek on most SME/SOHO sites
Oct 12 21:26:48 <sicelo> never seen those in our part of the world. seems in most cases, dlinks are used here. 
Oct 12 21:27:21 <sicelo> mikrotiks seem popular at SME level
Oct 12 21:33:35 <sixwheeledbeast> They are fairly popular for business in UK and Aus/NZ. I visit sites where the AP management and other features help. 
Oct 12 21:34:32 <sixwheeledbeast> A friend of mine uses them for VPN trunks to remote diagnose commercial sites over Africa. I think they are available there.
Oct 12 21:35:53 <sicelo> draytek? i know the name  from some local forum, but they are really rare  in these parts
Oct 12 21:38:40 <sixwheeledbeast> Interesting. They are distributed by SD Group South Africa over there.
Oct 12 21:39:37 <sixwheeledbeast> They sell Lutron too another brand I know well.
Oct 12 21:41:42 <sixwheeledbeast> Anyway, it was just a thought that you may have missed something in the settings yesterday... It seems illogical to support different types of IPv6 tunnels without a menu for it.
Oct 12 21:50:56 <sicelo> maybe my English sucks .. this tplink doesn't support different types of ipv6 tunnels. only supports 6rd.
Oct 12 21:51:02 <sicelo> Ask here. That's what the group is for.
Oct 12 21:51:22 <sicelo> http://pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=e708875a835df6614a70db2d06183f6c
Oct 12 21:51:41 <sicelo> http://pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=43895aaa1d19ecaeea153dd5a98284db
Oct 12 21:51:54 <sicelo> (wrong paste buffer for that "ask here" line)
Oct 12 21:53:03 <sicelo> or you mean that it really does support more tunnels types, but the menu is lacking?
Oct 12 21:58:19 <sicelo> i tried telnet to it, but most of the commands in there hang the telnet connection. crap router. only good for just basic connectivity. i wonder what serious vulnerabilities are hiding in it
Oct 12 21:58:52 <sixwheeledbeast> Ah no you explained correctly, I don't think you pasted that page yesterday. Maybe firmware update available with more options?
Oct 12 21:59:46 <sixwheeledbeast> Vulnerabilities is another reason I use a enterprise grade routers that offer firmware updates regularly.
Oct 12 22:03:22 <sixwheeledbeast> Check port 7547 is closed with a port scanner
Oct 12 22:05:27 <sicelo> what port is that?
Oct 12 22:05:51 <sicelo> i recall in the dlink there was a port for TR069 or some such that couldn't be closed
Oct 12 22:07:56 <sicelo> i just checked that port usage 
Oct 12 22:07:57 <sicelo> mmm
Oct 12 22:08:34 <sixwheeledbeast> Exactly. Many ISP provided routers have been exploited with this
Oct 12 22:12:34 <sicelo> nmap run from an external server says filtered
Oct 12 22:13:47 <sixwheeledbeast> Occasionally you can workround it my manually forwarding the open ports to a unused local IP. But doing workarounds for security makes no sense to me.
Oct 12 22:17:52 <sicelo> so for IPv6 with this router, i should look for a  6rd-capable provider, or be content with laptop only (which works good so far, tbh)
Oct 12 22:18:39 <sixwheeledbeast> It seems that way
Oct 12 22:19:02 <sicelo> thanks for the heads up on that port issue
Oct 12 22:20:33 <sixwheeledbeast> np
Oct 12 22:24:47 <sicelo> will do a firmware update tomorrow. but the changelog has nothing relating to ipv6, so yeah :)
Oct 12 22:35:06 <sicelo> \o
Oct 13 01:21:12 <DocScrutinizer05> apropos fw upgrade
Oct 13 01:22:07 <DocScrutinizer05> hmm >> EdgeRouter Pro v1.10.6 << ok
Oct 13 01:25:00 <DocScrutinizer05> GRR /topic ##ubnt: EdgeRouter 1.10.7
