Hi Everyone,

 

To be able to set up Open VPN on my TP Link router, I've been attempting to configure DDNS server so that I may access it from outside my home network.

But after setting up DDNS, when I type "nslookup domain.tplinkdns.com" into the command prompt, I can see an IPv4 address. However, since my router is behind a CGNAT router, configuring an IPv4 address becomes pointless, hence I am expecting an IPv6 address here.

 

Any suggestions are appreciated greatly.

For information, an IPv6 address has been allocated to my router (https://www.test-ipv6.com was used to confirm this).

In addition, I have used the links below to verify the necessary configurations:

 

 

TP Link DDNS Configuration: https://www.tp-link.com/in/support/faq/1367/

Configuring IPv6: https://www.tp-link.com/in/support/faq/1525/

Checking the functionality of my DDNS: https://www.tp-link.com/in/support/faq/3649/ (I get an IPv4 address from this, not an IPv6)

 

Thanks in Advance

Shreyas

Hi,

 

At present, IPv6 is still not supported for OpenVPN and TP-Link DDNS on any of TP-Link's routers.

Hello, thank you for posting on the TP-Link community.

Sorry that we don't have any specific details that I can share around if the feature can come to your router, or when it might.  I am not in software development, I cannot provide a definite answer. Thanks for your cooperation.
