I have installed ipv6 setup on the desktop and the netbook. Each has a local ipv6 address but I do not know what to uses as the ipv6 dns.
My current router linksys wag354g does not as I am aware list a ipv6 section. To use homegroups do I need to change my router or can it work using local ipv6 addresses directly.
cheers,
for the help,
Podman

Would IPV6 work locally if the router could handle it or is it basically a software thing that should work between the windows pc's themselves without the need to buy a replacement router.

It's some kind of Microsoft only thing.
You could always put IPV6 addresses in your hosts files...

Free AVG blocks the use of IPV6. Even if you use the registry hack to turn ipv6 on in the registry AVG gets in there at boot up and turns it off by correcting the registry change. Complete missuse of power if you ask me. They have no right to continually turn off a feature in windows so they can charge money. They can offer extra features to their program no problem but to start turning off standard bits of windows is in my book not on.
thanks for all your help.

M$ don't have much experience with ipv6 - perhaps thats why your virus checker switched it off.

@A Fox is Evil
Quote Support for Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), a new suite of standard protocols for the Network layer of the Internet, is built into the latest versions of Microsoft Windows, which include Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2003, Windows XP with Service Pack 2, Windows XP with Service Pack 1, Windows XP Embedded SP1, and Windows CE .NET.
Thats quite a range of their software, bit harsh to say that dont have "much experience" with it. Also if you search the MS ipv6 pages, they're actually quite informative.
(Microsoft does have its plus points occassionally)
@Podman, glad you've sorted it mate
