forward router advertisements over wireless router

Hi.
I've set up an ipv6 tunnel using aiccu and radvd.
Clients directly connected to the radvd station (server which acts as router) do receive router advertisements and are able to create a valid ipv6 address. They are able to reach the internet via ipv6. So far so good.
Clients connected to a wireless access point don't get any ipv6 router advertisements and therefore aren't able to create a global ipv6 address.
What can I do for redirecting router advertisements through the wireless access point?
How can clients be connected behind a wireless router which doesn't support ipv6?
kind regards
Matthias

What is your "wireless access point" doing, is it configured to route or to bridge?
Wireshark might be a good idea to check to figure out what goes on.

it's configured as a router.
wireshark doesn't shows any ipv6 traffic. router advertisements won't be forwarded.
so far as I know, the wireless router doesn't support ipv6. what are possible solutions to reach wireless clients with ipv6 information? buying a new access point? :)

You'll need to upgrade it in that case... which means firmware or the box.
Normally though wireless APs can be put in switching/bridging mode.
