IPV6 no Gateway ?

Thanks Andrew,
Ok, this is what I initially did and deploying IPv6 Addresses in my LAN works fine.
I checked and netstat and netsh showed what you said.Ver”ff.

However I am still not able to reach any IPv6 resource by either Ping or going to an IPv6 test website.
It seems that there is something else I need to configure ?

Satras,
The problem appears to be that you are using non-routable IPv6 addresses!
The IPv6 fd00::/8 block is defined in RFC 4193 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4193) as Unique Local Address and explicitly non-routable. Think of these as similar to 192.168.x.x addresses, which cannot be routed over the Internet.
You need to be using globally unique addresses. Did you not get an IPv6 subnet from your provider?
The minimum allocation recommended by IETF is /56, which is 256 /64 networks, which provides plenty of room.For example if you received 2001:0db8:1234:5600/56 from your provider, that means that your first subnet is 2001:0db8:1234:5600/64, the second one is 2001:0db8:1234:5601/64, all the way through 2001:0db8:1234:56ff/64 and so if the first subnet is on the WAN side, you can use any of the other subnets on the LAN side.

See top post for what I'm getting
IPv6 address fd97:xxxx:xxx:x::101a Subnet mask IPv6 112

Satras,
The problem is that the WAN interface is learning fd97:xxxx from the gateway, and fd00::/8 (fd00:: to fdff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff) are non-routable. It can't get to the Internet. Perhaps the WAN device is not configured to give you a proper routable IPv6 subnet, you need to talk to the provider.

Thanks, I understood that it's still possible, like it is right now, with NAT, right ?
But I don't know how to configure it correctly. -

But I don't know how to configure it correctly.Not right, just your internal home IPv6 network. A real native IPv6 is no-NAT-no-translation.
First get yourself an IPv6 address from your ISP. Something beginning with 2001: perhaps.
Then you will have a gateway to your outside world.Why do you need IPv6 ?
-
Who needs IPv6 right now ? I just want to be prepared and start my first tests with it.
I won't get a 2001 or similar public Network for various reasons.So still the questions, how do I configure it to work now ?

Well, the Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-Interface is hardly the future to prepare for…
You would like an IPv6 numberblocksize as your own premises "frontdoornumbers", just as you have (but only) one IPv4 number now.
P.S.
I see now you have an NATting ISP and doing you as 10.8.0.28. That is another future idea, based on trying to avoid going IPv6. There you have it... -
If your ISP supports IPv6 but only provides an IP address and not a prefix to be used on your LAN, then there's no way you can use it to route IPv6 traffic unless you have other services running in your router to do IPv6-based NAT (a HIGHLY uncommon setup at this point since there are so many IPv6 addresses available).
The next best thing to not having native IPv6 from your ISP would be to acquire a tunnel address block from a provider like SIXXS or Hurricane Electric. The tunnel will still operate over IPv4, but will provide you with a /64 or greater quantity of IPv6 addresses to use on your own network. Any IPv6 traffic from your network will go through the tunnel.
As far as who needs IPv6 now… there are parts of the world where IPv4 addresses are no longer available, or providers have gone to carrier-grade NAT (basically doing on a large scale what we at home have been doing for years; using a single public IPv4 address to serve many users with private network addresses).
While you're out seeking info about IPv6, you might also want to check out Hurricane Electric's IPv6 primer. They have info and exercises that you do to learn about IPv6 and some quick basic info on how it works.

As I can see you're running a german Windows.
So whats your Provider right now?Several Cable Providers and Telekom can give you IPv6 prefix to get your stuff runing.
What the others tried to tell you. There are some Options via Tunneling but right now what do you have and what you done, is creating an "internal" Network with FDxx adresses also known as ULAs (unique LOCAL adresses).
These adresses where invented as replacement for site local adresses and as a Transition technique and These adresses are designed not to be routable.
You Need a tunnel Broker which is able to encaplsulate IPv6 through IPv4 or the mentioned ISP with IPv6 UGA prefix (unique GLOABL adresses, similiar to IPv4 public adresses).
I'm prepraring a Video tutorial series in english and german to explain all these basics and walk trough the processes.
if you interested stay tuned and give me some Feedback and Inputs.
call for ideas is open. ;)
