For more information, see Use Auto Config for an IPv6 Internet Connection on page 32. • 6to4 tunnel.

For more information, see Set Up an IPv6 6rd Tunnel Connection on page 39. • PPPoE. For more information, see Set Up an IPv6 PPPoE Internet Connection on page 41. Which connection type you must use depends on your IPv6 ISP. Follow the directions that your IPv6 ISP gave you. • If your ISP did not provide details, use the 6to4 tunnel connection type (see Set Up an IPv6 6to4 Tunnel Internet Connection on page 34). • If you are not sure what type of IPv6 connection the router uses, use the Auto Detect connection type, which lets the router detect the IPv6 type that is in use (see Use Auto Detect for an IPv6 Internet Connection on page 31). • If your Internet connection does not use pass-through, a fixed IP address, DHCP, 6rd, or PPPoE but is IPv6, use the Auto Config connection type, which lets the router autoconfigure its IPv6 connection (see Use Auto Config for an IPv6 Internet Connection on page 32).
