Tunel IPv6

The UK’s service providers are very much behind the times when it comes to the latest technological developments. Given the somewhat phlegmatic attitude of the British people towards new technologies, it’s no wonder that ISPs are still stuck in the Stone Age (IPv4), even though the stones (the pool of IPv4 addresses) are gone. While I am lucky to have an external IPv4 address, I can forget about a version 6 address (thumbs down for Virgin Media).

Luckily, there is a solution, and it’s free!

If you have your own router with OpenWrt software, you have probably thought more than once about how to set up a VPN server on it so that you can connect to your local network from outside your home/office and have access to local data, such as a network drive or printer.
