I heard somewhere that not every routers support ipv6 and I am interested if mine is one of that or not:

ryceck Are you sure that I can do this. How can I start? I am familiar with all these, just I don't know where to register tunnel - where is the best place to do that?

And once more: Are you sure that my router supports ipv6?

First, find out if your router supports ipv6. Odds are, if it's a simple home router, it probably won't. IPv6 isn't taking off as had been suspected. You really should find out about your own router first then move on to ipv6 if supported.

Hmm, but is there any other similar thing to ipv6, because I want to hide my IP and I don't know how. Ipv6 isn't supported by my router, and ideas?

What has hiding your IP (which is technically impossible, well, you could cut your cables ;)) to do with IPv6?

Since neither your router nor your provider (probably) support IPv6, your chances are small, anyway.
If you are really interested in deploying IPv6 you should read the IPv6 & Linux - HowTo and the Gentoo IPv6 Router Guide.

Simple answer: Ask your vendor. He should know if the router supports IPv6.

Even more simple answer: No.

If you want to 'hide your IP' (assuming you mean your internal LAN IP) perhaps the simplest method would be to use NAT. But then you probably already are.

You're going to have to be clearer about what you are looking for.
