  1. Pop on over to he.net and create an account
  2. Create a regular tunnel and you should be given a page of details like the following
    details
  3. Download the following script
    Open the script with your favorite text editor and set the variables at the top as required

    IFIN="re1"

    This is your LAN interface.

    IPv6Router="2001:470:1f09:3cd::1"
IPv6Server="2001:470:1f08:3cd::1"
IPv6Client="2001:470:1f08:3cd::2"

    IPv6 Router is the first address from your routed /64 range given on the he.net details panel
    IPv6 Server is simply your IPv6 server address given on the he.net details panel
    and IPv6 Client is also just your IPv6 client address given on the he.net details panel.

    IPv4Server="216.66.80.26"
IPv4Client="88.151.87.116"

    IPv4 Server is simply the IPv4 server address given on the he.net details panel
    and IPv4 client is your WAN IP address.

  4. We also need to create a configuration file for rtadvd copy and paste the following 
    re1:\
   :addrs#1:addr="2001:470:1f09:3cd::":prefixlen#64:tc=ether:

    Where re1 is your LAN interface and where 2001:470:1f09:3cd:: is your /64 route. Save the following as rtadvd.conf

  5. Using sftp upload rtadvd.conf to /etc and config-ipv6.sh to /usr/local/etc/rc.d on your pfsense box. Set the permissions for config-ipv6.sh as executable.
  6. Reboot your pfsense box and the script should auto start and bring up your IPv6 tunnel

You will require a httpd server to do this, in this tutorial I used lighttpd running on debian.

To install lighttpd on debian just simply run

apt-get install lighttpd php5-cgi php5-mhash

and edit your php.ini to change cgi.force_redirect to 0

nano /etc/php5/cgi/php.ini

Come down and you'll find ;cgi.force_redirect = 1 and change it to cgi.force_redirect = 0
replace your lighttpd.conf

mv /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf.bak

download and move in my lighttpd config

wget http://tuts4tech.net/files/lighttpd.speed.conf
mv lighttpd.speed.conf /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf

and then finally restart your httpd

/etc/init.d/lighttpd restart

To spoof your speedtest.net result you'll need to grab speedtest.net mini you can download this from their website at http://speedtest.net/mini.php or you can just use wget to download it straight onto your server like I did in the tutorial

wget http://files.speedtest.ookla.com/releases/mini.zip

Extract mini.zip to your html dir, by default this is /var/www

mv mini.zip /var/www;cd /var/www; unzip mini.zip

Find out the IP address of the speedtest.net server to do this just simply run a speedtest and you will see it say something like Transferring data from host
for me the host was speedtest.airwire.ie and to get the IP address we just ping the host. After finding the IP address you need to add a virtual interface on your httpd server with this IP to do so run the following, where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP of the speedtest.net server

ifconfig eth0:0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.0

Then lastly we need to add a secondary IP address on your windows workstation so it can access the httpd server to do so go into your network connections right click on your networking interface click on properties select internet protocol version 4 and press properties click advanced and under IP addresses click add. Add an IP address that is in the same range as the speedtest.net server.

You should now be able to go to speedtest.net select the server you spoofed and get high speeds.

  • After installing windows 7 you will be greeted with a user creation prompt press shift+f10 and you should get a cmd window up like in the image belowcmduser
  • Copy the Users Profiles, Program Files And ProgramData Folders onto the Partition you want to use 
    robocopy "C:\Users" "D:\Users" /E /COPYALL /XJ
robocopy "C:\Program Files" "D:\Program Files" /E /COPYALL /XJ
robocopy "C:\ProgramData" "D:\ProgramData" /E /COPYALL /XJ
  • Delete the old folders and create links
    For Program Files:

    rmdir "C:\Program Files" /S /Q
mklink /J "C:\Program Files" "D:\Program Files"

    For the User Profiles:

    rmdir "C:\users" /S /Q
mklink /J "C:\users" "D:\users"

    and lastly ProgramData:

    rmdir "C:\ProgramData" /S /Q
mklink /J "C:\ProgramData "D:\ProgramData"

    If you have any permissions issues while deleting C:\ProgramData don't worry about them just try to delete it and make the links again after first reboot

  • Now open regedit simply by typing regedit on the cmd window
  • To change the program files path navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion and edit the ProgramFilesDir and CommonFilesDir as needed
    regeditproc
  • For the user profiles you'll need to go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList and again edit the paths as needed
    regeditprof
  • Exit Regedit and the cmd window
  • Continue to create your user
  • Reboot your machine and you should be good to go
