Dunlop Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Hey guys,I clicked on the install IPv6/Teredo button in 1.8 BetaThe hour glass came up.. disappeared.. and nothing really happened but I assumed it had installed. I clicked 'ok' and it told me I needed to restart utorrent before any changes took place, cool. Restarted. I even restarted my computer too. The problem is when I go into the preferences, the install IPv6/Teredo button is available again. How do I know if I've actually installed it? So far I haven't notice any increase in activity/speed.. but its hard to say because I'm only seeding some pretty inactive torrents. I'm using XP SP2.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 If you see tunnelling adapter in "ipconfig /all" it's installed.Is it REALLY that odd to see a button available again the NEXT time you open preferences? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunlop Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Thanks for the quick reply.I suppose its not THAT odd.. but can you not see its ambiguity? Especially when the user receives nothing that confirms the installation was successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 It opens a command window, heh. I think each time you start up uT if you have show misc errors on it shows the Teredo information. Or maybe it's linked to UPnP status... I've never used it, as it doesn't get past my router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunlop Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Really? My command window never opened up. Strange indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 Thing is, post... 2K I think it was, unless you specify /k on cmd/command it doesn't stay open by default. Soooo, it may have just flashed too fast As far as activity... teredo doesn't affect that. What it does (theoretically allow) is to get past NAT/ISP interference due to using IPv6 addresses. And it allows you to connect with other compatible clients via IPv6. According to http://www.sixxs.net IPv6 is available in many clients, but only a small fraction of users utilize it.

hermanm Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 > How do I know if I've actually installed it?The correct behavior for the program should be once you click on "Install IPv6/Teredo", it might take many seconds, but eventually go from a clickable black black to a greyed out box. That's how µTorrent 1.8 behaves for me in Windows 2000 and Windows XP. The button being available again is odd and I could see how that might imply IPv6 was not installed.

Chastity Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Same here. Verified a successful install with "ipconfig /all". Install button still available even after a reboot.XP Pro SP2 uT 1.8 rc4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 The button is intentionally available always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybercj Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 maybe its because you are using SP2,when i installed teredo on SP3,the button is no longer displayed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
