NAT64 – Viewing IPv4 Websites Via IPv6 With Tayga
If you use an IPv6 only network, you will not be able to access servers that are IPv4 only. By using Tayga in a Raspberry Pi router, you can translate the IPv4 address of the server into an IPv6 address that your host can use. This video shows the setup and some packet captures of how it works.

I believe OpenWRT uses Jool, which uses an in-kernel module instead of Tayga, I assume this is more efficient.
In TAYGA's conf: ipv4-addr 192.168.255.254, while nat64 interface gets 192.168.254.254. Is that on purpose?
I just use the hotspot on my phone through a travel router (mango) in repeater mode. I let the DNS server handle it's job. Back when I worked for an ISP, I used to deal with IP addresses and all that stuff. Good video. I use quad9 for DNS.
I just had a strange experience with comcast. I called them to ask if there was an outage in the area. I was told no, but they said they wanted to send a refresh to the modem. Before she could do that, I got reconnected without that. Yet she said she wanted to send a 'permanent signal, so it would never happen again. I knew that sounded made up and strange. Then she wanted the mac address on the back of the modem. I didn't think I wanted to do whatever she was doing, but for some reason went with that. A few minutes later i reconnected and youtube worked. Soon after that I realized IPV4 Websites no longer work in win 7, but youtube does. Nothing works, including youtube if I boot to a drive with windows 10, which is weird. I was thinking, what in the world could she have done. She never told me and I lost the call. Do you have any ideas what she could have happened? I called ask them to just put it back, but for hours no one could help me. They said something about my modem being older. I had also called to ask them to downgrade my service after finding out I had been paying for 150 to 200 mbit service I never ask for. I asked why would I need a newer modem if my old one could go faster than the 75 I wanted. No answer. If you have any idea how or why I could lost the ability to use IPV4, I'd appreciate knowing if you know. thanks
Who needs twitter anyway?
As I understand it, this takes care of IPv4 for internal networks when visiting websites, etc., but doesn't allow an application on your clients to have an IPv4 address when it needs 1, you need something like 464XLAT on the client device for that. That's what T-Mobile US has started doing at scale in 2013.
Perfect timing. I was searching for a 6 to 4 gateway this morning 🙏
❤ same as my LAN
Awesome, thanks! I will definitely implement that too, when I've got the time… Now only a video 464XLAT is missing ^^ 😉
I might see if I can try this, mainly because I'm curious to see how much is breaks. Most obviously any devices, software or protocols I'm using that don't properly support IPv6 will fail.
Maybe it is worth setting up your own DNS64 so you do not rely on someone else's service
