    believe me I have tried each and everything given up above. First it took me while to be able to ping ipv6 address, now that I am able to ping it successfully, activation is not working. Seems like machine having these IP are up but KMS server services are down or something...I spent last 4 hours doing this...seems like will have to wait for offline activation now.. :(

    I was having all the same problems you guys were, and changing the Ipv6 dns servers to that, and also the ipv4 dns servers to those values also worked, but those numbers won't work unless you restart your computer first. Then when you come back into Windows 8, you just drop in the key code, then follow the same CMD admin commands that everyone has been telling you about. Believe me it works. Before you change the dns servers, though, just open up a cmd in admin mode then perform this command ipconfig /flushdns. Trust me, this will work. Also, you can't be using the Windows Media Center key for your installation, because It won't work then. If you've already used the WMC key, you have no choice but to reinstall Windows 8 pro from scratch, and then do exactly what we listed. I also recommend disabling any third party firewall software you may be running. Also, is it just me, but my enter key does not work on this forum. Why is that? :p

    DNS servers on my router are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4, same ones needed.

    I would provide more detailed examples of how to get this working for others, but I can't even use my enter key on here. Never experienced that before. Very disorienting.

    And obviously you set the same DNS on the PC too.... did you try the different servers available for gogo6 ?

    1- go here (gogo6.com/freenet6/registration) and register (need for gogoClient program)

    2- then go here (gogo6.com/profile/gogoCLIENT) and download gogoCLIENT - Basic Version - run in windows 7 compatibility mode to install.

    3- run gogoCLIENT and in for Server Address put this: amsterdam.freenet6.net

    4- select Connect Using the Following Credentials and enter your User and Pass

    5- in Advanced tab select IPv6-in-UDP-IPv4 Tunnel (NAT Traversal) for Tunnel Mode

    6- press Apply then press Connect in Basic tab

    7- go to Status tab and wait till Tunnel Status shows Connected

    now if you did everything correct after this command:
    ping benderrodriguez-1-pt.tunnel.tserv28.waw1.ipv6.he.net

    you should see ping time. now you can easily active your windows by below commands (remember you should run CMD as Administrator):

    1- slmgr /skms benderrodriguez-1-pt.tunnel.tserv28.waw1.ipv6.he.net

    2- cscript slmgr /ato


    just did this method and it works

    How can you use it if it isn't working? If it responds pinging doesn't mean that you can activate with that server. But you don't lose anything by trying (it doesn't deactivate)

    This worked perfectly. For anyone else that wants to get rid of WMC for the time being and just activate Win 8 Pro while the KMS server is still up. i didn't need to do anything with digitalproductid4 binary at all, so skip that step. It isn't necessary.
