Cannot ping with IPv6

Posted: 05-27-2008, 01:50 PM
Hi,

I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate with IPv6 and Teredo installed and
enabled, but it seems I

am unable to ping any hosts on the local network (which consists of one
other XP SP3 machine)

or internet. Both computers are connected to a standard router (Dell
TrueMobile 2300, which is

IPv4 only I believe). Still, an IPv4 router should not matter considering
Teredo should be

enabled on both computers.

Running ipconfig returns the following:

Here is what some of the ping commands returned. (I do not have much of an
understanding of

IPv6, so I may be giving a bad address to ping some of the time.)

Pings to all other addresses with/without zone IDs have similar results.

A ping to any of the sites listed on http://www.ipv6.org/v6-www.html from
Vista returns:

Ping request could not find host www.6bone.net. Please check the name and
try again.

And on XP something like:

----------------------------------------------------------------
Pinging www.kame.net [2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085] with 32 bytes of
data:

----------------------------------------------------------------

No surprise, I also can't view any of the sites from IE7/Firefox.
I'll be glad to provide any other info that is needed to diagnose the problem.

Thanks.
