Network adapter 6TO4

[Guest]

Ever since I installed Vista Home Edition Premium, I have found this adapter
in the Devise Manager under Network adapters. It shows that it was
manufactured by Microsoft. The problem is it does not work because there is
no driver for it. Can anyone tell me where I can get the driver for Network
Adapter 6TO4???? And secondly, what in the world is this adapter for???
Thirdly, can I just delete this adapter with no adverse consequences to my
Windows Vista???? Thank you for your time!

I have the same issue, with "Code 31 - Cannot load driver" being listed in
the Device Status window. A google search pointed me towards several tech
support forums where other people are also reporting the problem. On one of
the forums (can't remember which one), someone provided a link to the
following microsoft knowledgebase article:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932520/en-us

It doesn't specifically mention the 6TO4 adapter, but it apparently applies.
As for what the 6TO4 adapter is, I haven't quite figured it out. Knowing
that it is a "Tunneling Address Protocol used to help enterprises transition
to an IPv6 infrastructure" doesn't mean anything to my only mildly computer
saavy self.

Hi
I too am having problems with this. Details: In Device Manager there is a
yellow triangle against nearly all (20) items in Network Adapters. For
Microsoft 6to4 adapter says driver is up to date, but also shows error code
31. NOTE message reads "This device is not working properly because windows
cannot load the drivers required for this device". Same message for all
other items. Have checked for solutions - but none available. How do we get
help please????

Having an issue with 6TO4 on my Vista Home Premium laptop. Have tried all
updates from Toshiba and none have fixed as of yet. Last one left to try is
the MS service pack. Will see if this will do it.
