I don't recall on which firmware version I set up the tunnel, but anyway I have fallen back to 1.0.4.17 with a factory reset. It may be important to follow the instructions in https://supportforums.cisco.com/sites/default/files/legacy/2/3/1/43132-Connecting_RV220W_to_an_IPv6_Tunnel_broker.pdf in the proper sequence. Pay attention to the two entries (different types) in the Advertisement Prefixes section. In the Tunneling section your tunnelbroker IP-adress will not show up in the IPv6 Tunnel Status Table. I have enabled and entered the Remote End Point IPv4 Address.

No, the data was never requested and the IPv6 tunnel problem never solved. In firmware 1.0.6.6 it is still present and now the router is EOL, so it will never be solved.

Apparently there is no other way than falling back to 1.0.4.17 again. It appears, that the real problem is frequent loss of the tunnel connection. There is no other way than rebooting the router to reestablish the tunnel. If this could be done by monitoring software as is possible with some other (low-end) routers, it might be feasible, but no this is not possible with this router.

With firmware 1.0.4.17 I have had our IPv6 tunnel working fine for a couple of years but it does not seem to work after upgrading to firmware 1.0.6.6 I have followed the instructions in 43132-Connecting_RV220W_to_an_IPv6_Tunnel_broker.pdf to no avail. Has anybody been able to run an IPv6 6in4 tunnel with a firmware later than 1.0.4.17 and if yes, how ? This is also a question to Cisco

I am not able to give any advice on other current products. http://www.smallnetbuilder.com/ is a good place to check out. Despite of several issues the RV220W with firmware 1.0.4.17 is actually working in a setup with one WAN connection for several PCs and a couple of servers on the LAN using both IPv4 and IPv6. It also has an external IPv6 connection through a Tunnelbroker 6in4 tunnel. In addition an IPv4 VPN (IPsec) to a remote Linux server is working. The software development of the RV series is apparently outsourced and Cisco has failed miserably in handling this. After using several brands of routers through the years we chose a Cisco router because of the excellent brand reputation for routers. With 1½ years between releases of firmware and without fixing all known bugs there is nothing left of this brand reputation. I simply do not understand, why Cisco is not more careful about its reputation.

A fallback to 1.0.4.17 has been done. The 1.0.5.8 version is buggy and useless in my setup. The IPv6 tunnel stopped working after some time and the CPU usage was still 100%. I have backed up the 1.0.5.8 configuration, have a copy of the IPv6 routing table and some logs from the unit, which is available for Cisco. However, based on earlier experience with Cisco, these data will never be requested and used.

After once again restoring the 1.0.4.17 configuration. IPv6 over the tunnel is working. However, the router is in a 99-100% CPU usage situation. The dashboard, when it is actually possible to load it beyond the "Please Wait ... The page is being loaded", will display partly proper data and partly $| trStrings["11383"] or 'i18nHTMLMissing' |$ and occasionally the full page. If the IPv6 functionality is lost again and/or this CPU usage continues, it will be downgraded to 1.0.4.17

The frequency of updates for the RV220W is about 1 every 1½ year and a new release was published today, so don't expect any new features in a short time frame, if ever. I would be surprised, if the support for the RV320 is better.

LATEST: Do not upgrade, if you are using IPv6. There are issues not yet fully understood. After waiting about 1½ year a new firmware release is made available. The upgrade process from 1.0.4.17 did not run as simple as described in the release notes. I followed the instructions, but ended up with a device, which did not handle IPv6. After some twiddling with saving unchanged settings I managed to make it respond to a ping6, but not to route IPv6 through my tunnelbroker tunnel. As an attempt to fix it I decided to select the IP4-option with the intent to revert to the dual-stack IPv4 and IPv6 again. After the reboot I ended up with a router displaying only $| trStrings["11383"] or 'i18nHTMLMissing' |$ on the web interface and did nothing but reply to pings. After a factory reset (Press the red reset button for 10+ seconds and login with cisco/cisco) I restored the 1.0.4.17 configuration from a backup taken before the upgrade and the router returned to full operation again, it seems. However, the IPv6 has now stopped working again. No response on ping6 and no routing. The release notes are interesting. It is of course fine, that some errors in an option in DHCP is fixed, but a number of bugs reported 1½ year ago are still present and not at all acknowledged in the 'Known issues" section of the release notes. Apparently the development department is living in another world. Just to mention a few: - hairpinning is not fixed. The source IP address is still the router's IP address - reordering access rules can still only be made within one page - front lights are fixed and do not indicate amount of traffic - RIP1 is announcing a WAN of /8 when it should only be /30 - SNMP is not using the standard Cisco prefix 1.3.6.1.4.1.9 for private fields

The RV220W hair-pinning problem is back Firmware Version 1.0.4.17 I just made a minor change to the firewall and then all access from the LAN using the public IP-address was directed to the router itself. The method of manually doing edit/save each of now 40 rules did not solve the problem. Next then save and restore of the configuration (followed by a reboot) did not solve the problem. However, I had forgotten that the access rule Always Allow Any Enabled Inbound (WAN (Internet) > LAN (Local Network)) 192.168.1.5 - 192.168.1.254 fixes the problem, but it is a bad solution suffering from security risks.

We are having the same setup working and as far as I see, you are doing it right by using the Access Rules and not the Port Forwarding. I would recommend upgrading to the latest firmware. It does solve some of the problems in this router and after the upgrade, you will have to go through all the access rules and save each of them again to make them work. It may solve your problem.

Well, actually it does work when you are having an access rule for each port used, but the weird thing is, that the source address of the request is the LAN router address making it impossible to act based on which IP-addresses the request is originating. The DMZ feature is also basic router functionality, but apparently only present as a GUI checkbox, which I have not yet discovered the purpose of. Anyway an access rule as Always Allow Any Enabled Inbound (WAN (Internet) > LAN (Local Network)) 192.168.1.5 - 192.168.1.254 will open the LAN for access to any server port using the external IP. It seems to be working although it is not inbound WAN traffic. However, as the external address is not mentioned in this rule, probably only sites with a single server can use it.

Any cheap router is supporting this, so it should rather be considered basic router functionality than an optional feature.

Yep, that's the right way to do it. Just blame the customer and assume no responsibility for bad craftmanship.
