Access your router via IPv6

There are those who wish to do away with IPv4 and use solely IPv6. How, then, does one connect to the router? The default URL is http://192.168.1.1, which is IPv4.

Well, there’s a way.

Go into the connection stats for your computer and get your IPv6 IP address.

Mine is :

fdf8:6213:46ff::a9c

Change the last bit after the last colon to a 1 :

fdf8:6213:46ff::1

Wrap that in square brackets :

[fdf8:6213:46ff::1]

Add the http:// or https:// :

https://[fdf8:6213:46ff::1]/

… put your version of that into your browser address bar, hit Enter, and the LuCI interface will come up.
