The [[:Category:ZyXEL VMG3925 B10B|VMG3925 B10B]] and [[:Category:ZyXEL VMG1312 B10D|VMG1312 B10D]] are currently AAISP's default routers, both with [[IPv6]] support. |
|||
==Firmware Versions== |
|||
=Technicolor TG582N= |
|||
Version 8.4.4.1 is the factory default (as of November 2011) |
|||
Version 8.4.7.0 is IPv6 enabled, and is upgraded at AAISP when configured by AAISP. |
|||
The [[TG582N]] was AAISP's default [[ADSL Router|ADSL router]] prior to May 2015, it was chosen due to its [[IPv6]] support. The Firmware versions that AAISP use which support [[IPv6]] include 8.4.7.0 and 10.2.0.B. |
|||
AAISP usually configure the router on their TR-069 server and run the upgrade to 8.4.7.0 before shipping, but some customers have been shipped trial-routers with the 8.4.4.1... |
|||
The [[TG582N]] is a 4 port [[ADSL Router|ADSL router]], and can be configured so that one of the [[ethernet]] ports can support PPPoE - for connecting to an external [[FTTC Modem]] as it does not have a built-in VDSL modem. It has Wi-Fi too. |
|||
Upgrading from 8.4.4.1 is arranged by AAISP via the TR-069 CPE WAN Management protocol. This involves installing the "isp.def" as needed to persuade the router to connect to AAISP's TR-069 servers and asking AAISP to request the upgrade. Twice it has happened that the upgrade only partially completed, and it has been recessary to FTP to the router, re-uploading the isp.def, before it 'reports in' to AAISP correctly. |
|||
See the [[TG582N]] page for further information, and configuration notes (problems & fixes) |
|||
==Other Settings & Config info== |
|||
===Admin Settings=== |
|||
When configured by A&A, the default username from the LAN side is: Administrator and from the WAN: aaisp. |
|||
The password will be printed on the card on the base of the router, and also seen on the control pages. |
|||
===Setting up Routed Config=== |
|||
Use the configuration-wizard (Firefox seems to work best) and choose ADSL(Expert). |
|||
TODO: Describe where to find this. |
|||
===Adding Static-routes=== |
|||
ip rtlist |
|||
ip rtadd dst=network/mask gateway=gatewayip |
|||
ip saveall |
|||
===Really disabling the firewall=== |
|||
From a customer: While going mad with a tg582n tonight. I discovered they try to do stateful firewalling even when the firewall is disabled in the web interface. This breaks where you want to failover to 3G. I guess it would also break if you had 2 ADSL lines. |
|||
Completely disabling the firewall seems to be necessary to allow IPv6 connections from WAN side to network, as even when IPv4 firewall is 'off', the IPv6 still seems to be firewalled. |
|||
To fix, put in CLI: |
|||
firewall config state disabled |
|||
firewall config icmpchecks disabled |
|||
firewall config udpchecks disabled |
|||
firewall config tcpchecks none |
|||
Disabling the firewall also allows access to the routers' internal services from the WAN-side, although there seems to be some default logic disallowing these to function e.g. "User 'Administrator' is disallowed to login from wan to telnet" etc. |
|||
Disabling the firewall also exposes the DNS forwarder (whose software seems to have NO restrictions on the client-IP used!). |
|||
===Getting rid of Open DNS Forwarder=== |
|||
Once the firewall is 'actually' disabled, there is now the problem that the DNS Forwarding function is now open-access to the world! This is bad because small spoofed-source UDP-packets can be sent to the router, resulting it a *large* UDP reply of the attackers' choice, a bandwidth-multiplication attack. |
|||
This can be resolved by:- |
|||
(a) On any machines with a static-IP-configuration, set their nameservers to go directly to AAISP (217.169.20.20 217.169.20.21) and do not try to use the routers' LAN IP address. |
|||
(b) Telnet into the Router, logon to Administrator, then enter commands:- |
|||
dhcp server config state=disabled |
|||
dhcp server pool config name LAN_custom localdns=disabled |
|||
dhcp server pool config name LAN_custom primdns=217.169.20.20 |
|||
dhcp server pool config name LAN_custom secdns=217.169.20.21 |
|||
dhcp server config state=enabled |
|||
dns server config state=disabled |
|||
saveall |
|||
What this does, is tells the DHCPv4 server to directly give out the addresses of AAISP's recursive DNS servers and not its, own, and then completely disable the integral DNS server (notice the DHCP server can only be reconfigured while disabled). |
|||
NB: You can check if Legacy IP addresses are running an Open Recursive server using the website:- |
|||
http://security.zensupport.co.uk/recdns/ |
|||
===Problems connection to PPTP Servers=== |
|||
One customer has reported problems connecting to PPTP VPN servers in either direction through a tg582n with the 8.4.7.0 firmware. |
|||
Technicolor have stated that this may be due to the Application Layer Gateway system intercepting PPTP packets even when the firewall is disabled and is a deliberate feature, but that the feature can be disabled by entering the following commands in the CLI: |
|||
connection applist |
|||
connection unbind application PPTP port 1723 |
|||
saveall |
|||
However the same customer has reported that this solution has not actually fixed the problem and that the PPTP entry is still visible when running the "connection applist" command even after the unbind command has been successfully run. |
|||
(Another customer has been able to reproduce tho issue, unable to connect to swissvpn.net, etc. but does work using the alternative OpenWRT ADSL router instead). |
|||
===Changing PPP Password, via telnet CLI=== |
|||
The command ''should'' be: |
|||
ppp ifconfig intf=Internet user=x@a password=secret status=enabled |

The Airport Extreme claims to support native IPv6 over PPPoE but we don't know of anyone who has it working. It still works via tunnels though (tunnel configuration explained on the [http://aa.net.uk/kb-broadband-ipv6-tech.html knowledge base]). You need to set the remote tunnel endpoint address to 81.187.81.6, and you need two /64 subnets off us that are statically routed to the Airport's IPv4 address. Assign an IP from one /64 as the WAN address and set the default route to our ping address "bottomless", which is 2001:8b0:0:81::51bb:51bb. Set the LAN address to the first usable IP on the second /64 and it should just work. |

Note that the firmware 7.6.3 breaks tunnels configured under earlier firmware but there is a simple fix. Using the latest version of Airport Utility you need to add an [[IPv6]] Delegated Prefix. The easy way seems to be to copy and paste the address from the [[IPv6]] LAN address field and add /64 to the end - otherwise it assumes a /48.

==ASUS RT-N66U== |
|||
The RT-N66U does pretty much "just work" with [[IPv6]]. Running the TomatoUSB firmware it was just a case of enabling "Native [[IPv6]]" in the [[IPv6]] options and giving the router's LAN interface an address from the allocated /64. The router appears to have enabled RA by default, so everything on the LAN side "just works" |
|||
==TP-Link TD-8817== |
|||
From a customer: |
|||
"The current v8 firmware does support [[IPv6]] properly, but for it to be distributed to connected devices, not only DHCPv6 needs to be enabled, but also RADVD (this setting is not currently described in the modem's user manual). Leaving the sub-settings for RADVD to their default seems fine." |
