4 TopicsWAN IPv6 Prefix Delegation doesn't work
I bought recently a new FVS328Gv2 as replacment for an older D-Link DIR-825. The FVS318Gv2 is connected to an AVM Fritz!Box 6490 which is the internet access router of my provider. The Fritz!Box 6490 allows to use a second router on its LAN side and offers an IPv6 subnet prefix via prefix delegation. This IPv6 prefix delegation has been working well with my DIR-825 so the Fritz!Box seams to be setup properly by me. Let me now explain the steps taken with my new FVS328Gv2: 1. Unboxed the device and checked that it has FW Version 4.3.1-11 2. Upgraded to the latest version from netgear portal 3. Now the FVS328Gv2 is using FW Version 4.3.4-2 4. Setup IPv4 WAN via DHCP -> works fine Fritz!Box 6490 delivers address, gateway and DNS to FVS328Gv2 Access to the internet is working and at good performance rate. Fritz!Box 6490 has a static IPv4 route into my private LAN on FVS328Gv2. 5. Setup IPv6 WAN via DHCPv6 with IPv6 Prefix Delegation -> *** does not work *** FVS328Gv2 gets an IPv6 address and gateway (the Fritz!Box 6490). But WAN link status remains on 'connecting... ' and never ends. Some time later it gets a primary DNS server (the Fritz!Box 6490). But WAN link status remains on 'connecting... ' and never ends. I never see a delegated prefix on the LAN configuration pages of the FVS328Gv2. So I can't get IPv6 internet access from the LAN side of the FVS328Gv2. The Fritz!Box does not offer static IPv6 routes so setup the FVS328Gv2 WAN manually will not work. Note: The Fritz!Box gets an IPv6 prefix of length 62 from my ISP. The former DIR-825 has been assigned properly a sub-prefix of the 63 by the Fritz!Box. What am I doing wrong? Hope for any help.

I have two WANs up and running and selected NAT and Load balancing with weighted LB. I defined a protocol binding for FTP for WAN2 but it routes through WAN1? The default outbound policy is "block always" and i only have one policy that allows all trafic and NAT IP is set to AUTO. Why is it not working? The only way to get outgoing traffic for specific service to specific WAN port is to define an outbound policy for each and define NAT IP accordingly, for example WAN2. If I understand correct the protocol binding should work without any outbound policies? Firmware: 4.3.3-65.8KViews0likes5CommentsFVS336GV3 adding multiple IP addresses on WAN
Make/Model: Netgear Prosafe FVS336GV3 4.3.3-6 - applies to any version Having wasted time reading multiple posts but successfully adding multiple IP addresses to a single WAN port, I thought I would post the simple solution myself, so that Netgear employees don;t have to stretch themselves too much.... Make sure you create and add SECONDARY ADDRESSES to the WAN (1 or 2) BEFORE you create your inbound NAT rules. Only then will they appear in the drop-down list where you can bind them to internal addresses (see above screen-shot)4.6KViews0likes1CommentWAN to VPN to Router setup
Am having trouble setting up the following config. Broadband WAN connection into FVS318 VPN - 8 port to route to non wireless clients one LAN port of the FVS318 into the WAN port of WGR614 I tried DHCP off and also on but with a limited range on the downstream (WiFi) router. I also tried setting its WAN IP to fixed (192.168.1.11) and to DHCP and the WGR614 just seemed to no longer respond to connection requests. So, rather than troubleshoot my trials, what is best practice for how to configure WGR614 as a downstream Wireless router from another router?17KViews0likes2Comments
