title: VIWIB - The VPN IPv6 WiFi IoT Box
---
subtitle: VIWIB brings you IPv6 and WiFi
---
content1_text:
## Our mission
We want to enable anyone, anyone with IPv6. It should be as simple as
"plug and play". We are very proud to announce that with the
**VPN IPv6 IoT Router Box** (VIIRB), we can now offer exactly this.
## How it works
The VIIRB is pre-configured with a Wireguard VPN. With this VPN you
will receive a /48 IPv6 prefix. The IPv6 connectivity is provided by
[Data Center Light](https://ungleich.ch/u/projects/data-center-light/).
When you plug in the ethernet cable and power it on, it will do the
following:
* Establish a VPN connection via IPv4 or IPv6 to Data Center Light
* Announce a pre-configured /64 network on the LAN
* Announce a pre-configured /64 network on the Wifi
By default the firewall is configured to allow outgoing connections
from LAN/Wifi towards the VPN. Incoming ICMP6, SSH, HTTP and HTTPS are
open by default.
## Fully Open
The VIIRB is running stock [OpenWRT](https://openwrt.org/). We flash
the latest available version before shipping. SSH and http access to
the OpenWRT management is open. The password is randomly generated and
will be sent to you with the shipping confirmation.
## VIIRB use cases
So what can you do with the VIIRB?
### 1. IPv6 on the go
Going to a friend and the network does not have IPv6? Just bring your
VIIRB, plug it in and enjoy a fully enabled IPv6 network.
### 2. IPv6 world wide reachable audio system
You can install the [music player daemon](https://www.musicpd.org/) on
the VIIRB and allow remote control of the music from anywhere in the
world. You can either put your music locally on an SDXC card or you
can even mount your music collection or stream music to it.
Just connect the VIIRB to your audio system, configure it and enjoy
remotely controlled music!
### 3. A BGP router
With
[bird2](https://openwrt.org/packages/pkgdata/bird2)
and
[quagga](https://openwrt.org/packages/pkgdata/quagga) available on
OpenWRT, you can use it directly for peering with other ASNs.
In fact, if you let us know before ordering, we can even connect your
VIIRB to a VPN endpoint that allows peering with the real Internet.
### 4. A hacking box
Thi VIIRB contains a variety of additional features like PWM, GPIO,
A/D converter, D/A converter and so on. It can also plug in a small
camera, so you can turn it into an IPv6 enabled camera. The VIIRB is
so universal, easy and hackable that it's just fun to use it.
Remote controlling your lights, your blinds, your doorbell - all
remotely via IPv6? You can do it with the VIIRB!

an up-to-date firmware, pre-configured and
combined with the [IPv6VPN](https://ipv6vpn.ch).
### Local throughput
We measured throughput on a LAN, IPv6 based with iperf:
```
root@viirb1:~# iperf -c 2a0a:e5c0:13::42 -t 30 -V
------------------------------------------------------------
Client connecting to 2a0a:e5c0:13::42, TCP port 5001
TCP window size: 87.5 KByte (default)
------------------------------------------------------------
[ 3] local 2a0a:e5c0:13:0:bad8:12ff:fe64:9d4d port 46452 connected with 2a0a:e5c0:13::42 port 5001
[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth
[ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 332 MBytes 92.6 Mbits/sec
```
## What is in the box
When you order the VIIRB, you will receive one pre-configured
system. The box **does not** contain the micro usb cable or a charger,
because we think that most people already have this and we don't want
to contribute to tech waste.
### IPv6VPN included
A free subscription for 1 year is included. This way you can plug in
the VIIRB and just get started with IPv6.
## VIIRB Add-Ons
The VIIRB comes with a variety of possible add-ons that can turn it
into an even more versatile device.
### Turning the VIIRB into an IPv6 camera
You can turn the VIIRB into an IPv6 streaming camera with
a compatible USB-Webcam. For **25 CHF** you can add a tested,
HD (1280x720) USB camera to your VIIRB order.
### Turning the VIIRB into an IPv6 thermometer
If you want to know how hot (or cold) it is,
you can use an USB temperature sensor to measure the temperature.
For **20 CHF** you can add a tested temperature sensor to your VIIRB
order.
### Turning the VIIRB into an LTE/4G router
Using an USB 4G Modem you can use the VIIRB to enable a network not
only with IPv6, but also with Internet connectivity in general.
For **70 CHF** you can add a 4G modem to your VIIRB order.
### Turning the VIIRB into a GPS tracker
The VIIRB is small and universal. What if you could use it to track
things? Like your car, your bike, your boat? And check where your
things are using IPv6?
You can add the USB GPS tracker add on for **25 CHF** as a single
device.
### Multiple Add-Ons via USB Hub
To connect more than one add-on to the VIIRB, you will need a
USB-Hub. For **25 CHF** you can add a verified,
4 Port USB hub to your VIIRB order.
### The VIIRB autonomous security system
The VIIRB can be turned into an autonomous security system with the
following add-ons:
* USB Hub (to support multiple add-ons)
* LTE/4G Router (Internet Uplink, excluding SIM card)
* GPS Tracker (To record where the VIIRB is)
* USB Camera (To stream what the VIIRB can see)

## More of it
If you need more ports, Gigabit support, more RAM and more storage,
you can checkout the [Pro IPv6 Box](../pro-ipv6-box).
You can also announce your own IPv6 space via the VIIRB. The only
requirement is that you have an ASN and an IPv6 prefix. Checkout the
[BGP Peering](/u/products/bgp-peering/) for more details.

## How it works in detail
The complete flow for how your computers get IPv6 in the LAN
is show in the following picture:
![](/u/image/ipv6-with-the-viirb.png)
So basically the VIIRB...
* gets an IPv4 address in your LAN
* connects to the IPv6VPN.ch service
* Gets its /48 routed via Wireguard
* Announces (via Router Advertisements) IPv6 on the LAN
* Because of the announcement, all clients in the LAN assign themself
an IPv6 address
And for Wifi it does the same, but uses a different /64
network.
