IPv6 Capabilities to IPv4 Only Provider?

[Paffo]

Hi, i was wondering if this could be used to add IPv6 Support (via VPS) to a IPv4-only home network.

My VPS has both a Public IPv4 and public IPv6 in the /64 Range. My home network only has IPv4, no IPv6 support. I need to connect to a IPv6-only service, i was wondering if wireguard could be used for this.

I unfortunately have zero knowledge in networking so i'm not sure im explaining myself properly, i want to know if it's possible to create a IPv6 interface on my local machine, channel it's traffic to the VPS via the only available mean (IPv4) and navigate the web via the VPS's IPv6 address.

Thanks

I think this should be possible. I have tested the following:

• disabled IPv6 on my notebook
• connected me to the WireGuard server (IPv4+IPv6 configuration)
• checked my connection at ipv6-test.com

The website is showing the IPv4 and IPv6 of the wg server. Without the connection to the wg server it is showing only IPv4.

But I don't know if this is a "real" IPv6 connection. Don't know an IPv6 only service.

EDIT Tested again, I can reach ipv6.google.com

Could you explain how you did it? Because i tried and it doesn't work from the Windows client. I setup wireguard with this script, then created a config and imported it in the windows client. It connects successfully but the client has no internet (either v4 or v6) until i disconnect. forwarding is enabled and ports are allowed in the firewall, so no idea why it does that. Logs show nothing other than successful connection.

It is possible. Unfortunately, I don't have a Windows client. I have a linux client and a Mac client, though. Nevertheless, the pattern must be the same irrespective of the OS.

Please post your own config in order to troubleshoot. You must have a working configuration in order to take advantage of IPv6 via a VPS.

Once you have a working configuration (where "AllowedIPs=vps_ipv4/32", then you can modify it to "AllowedIPs=vps_ipv4/32,::/0" in order to take advantage of IPv6 via the VPS.

I have not tested this with Windows until now. But maybe I can try it later this day.

I have tested a Windows machine now and it works. So no Windows client problem.

im trying all combination but unfortunately nothing. It successfully tunnels the IPv4, but IPv6 is always no connection.

My Client Config:

My VPS /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf

[Interface]
Address = 10.66.66.1/24,fd42:42:42::1/64
ListenPort = 58570 (opened and allowed in firewall)

In the end my PC was the problem. Tested the same exact setup on a different PC and it's working perfectly.

Thanks to everyone for the help.
