Does anyone know if their routers are IPv6 enabled specifically Linksys WRT160N ? If so what models. It appears their web site does not document anything regarding IPv6.

You can find a list of routers that come with ipv6 support out of the box here: http://www.sixxs.net/wiki/Routers
Not sure how up-to-date that is though.

Your Linksys wrt160n may be able to run the DD-WRT firmware (depends on the hardware revision of the box but it looks like some revisions do support it). Check these pages: http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/support/router-database

A tutorial for setting up ipv6 on DD-WRT enabled hardware can be found here: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/IPv6_%28tutorial%29

You could also have a look at OpenWRT and Sveasoft firmwares.

Personally I have good experiences with Fritz!Box WLAN routers in combination with the Freetz addon for ipv6 support. I don't think they're available in the US though..

Needless to say that installing a 3rd party firmware in your Linksys is at your own risk.

Good luck and let us know how you get on.
