Guys,

I have the same problem, and i fixed it ! It comes from the fact that the videotron modem does not support IPv6. All you have to do is disable the IPv6 on your network card (on windows or linux) and it will work just fine

[simonvez]

another fix I just found... instead of disabling the IPv6 on the PC, go in the router in Setup/IPv6 then click on Manual IPv6 Internet connection setup, then select  My IPv6 connection is : Autoconfiguration

then hit apply !!

VOILA !

Glad you got it working Simonvez. All this time and it comes down to IPv6 settings on PCs. I was thinking all this was a configuration issue.

Glad you got it working. Enjoy.

Confirmed..

Same ISP (videotron), same modem, same router (dir-835).

Go into:
Setup - IPV6 - Manual IPV6 Internet Connection Setup

Uncheck "Enable automatic IPv6 address assignment" then reboot your router and voilą!

Thnx for the thread.

Yup, it did solved my problem although I've hit a second one related to VPN ipsec where i would get disconnected within a minute or two....  This time got I got tired I simply brought the router back to the store and exchanged it with a netgear  WNDR4000.  It worked out of the box without any problems.

Good Luck with the different router.

Hi,

We have carefully read your comments regarding an issue relating to YouTube and other streaming sites with some recent D-Link routers (including the DIR-835) connected to Videotron's network. This problem is related to IPv6 MTU and has been confirmed by D-Link. A fix will be available in future versions of the firmware for these routers (versions above 1.03 for the DIR-835).

The temporary workaround to solve this issue is to select "6rd" rather than "Auto Detection" as the IPv6 Internet Connection:
1. Login to your routeur web interface (http://192.168.0.1) with the "admin" username.
2. Select Setup at the top, then IPv6 on the left.
3. Click "Manual IPv6 Internet Connection Setup" near the bottom of the page.
4. In the field "My IPv6 Connection is:", select 6rd (second-last option in the menu).
5. Hit "Save Settings". You will be asked to reboot the routeur.

This issue does not affect Videotron-branded DIR-825 routers.

We hope this information will be helpful to you and we remain available to answer your questions regarding our products and services by phone, chat and email: http://bit.ly/LNGzRk, we also available on Facebook/Videotron and Twitter @Videotron.

Thank you for posting and confirming the information. I hope this will help users of the DIR-835 and other model routers that support IPv6 working on the Videotron ISP service. This seemed to be an isolated issue between DLink routers and Videotron ISP and glad it's being resolved and that there will be a fix forth coming.

Thank you.

Enjoy.
