I had a good look last night, and there's not a lot of options.

Thanks for taking the time to do that.

You're welcome. I've been wanting to put my VPS in Adelaide on a reasonable IPv6 link for a while. My US one is covered by he.net (rock solid) with a manually configured tunnel, but wanting an option for .au.

...

Gogo6 no longer has a Sydney PoP. Aarnet's tunnel broker is still running, but finding a compatible client is tough these days (the current gogoc does not work with it).

I'm using gogoc from Wheezy and it works just fine as a client for aarent. I remember having to modify the scripts for gw6c (gogoc replaces this package) and can't remember if I had to do the same modifications for gogoc. And I can't remember what I modified and why offhand. If anyone wants to use the aarnet broken and can't I can dig this up.

I couldn't get gogoc to work last night. I modified the configuration and it complained about protocol version issues. I downloaded gogoc from gogo6 and compiled it on the box.

It's amazing that these seem to be the only ones doing it after so long. Telstra Business Broadband (was Internet Direct) says it's coming soon for their ADSL tails, but it's been that way for a while.

Yep, would have thought someone other than Internode would be offering IPv6 by now. Internode IPv6 is rock solid. Only times I notice IPv6 is either if I can be bothered checking what IP I'm connecting to, or when something screwy happens. Had a good one last week. Several people complained a site wasn't working, but I never had any issues. Turned out the site was IPv6 capable, but there was a DNS screwup with the IPv4 RRs, so only IPv4 users were affected, and I had no issues. :-D

2. Aarnet (if you can find the right tspc version, no reverse DNS).

As above, I'm doing this already. Great except the reverse DNS is a show stopper now with Comcast and probably others.

Bummer. :(

3. IPV6 Now (free version has dynamic IPv6 and no rDNS delegation).

I'll look into this.

To get what you want, you'd have to go to a paid service. If my server was part of a money making concern, I'd go this route, but it isn't. At this stage, SixXS via New Caledonia looks like the best of a bad lot for me. :) Latency isn't too severe (35-40 mS from Adelaide and 50 ish mS from my DSL connection here), and their PoP is lightly loaded (6 tunnels, 1 routed subnet). 73 de VK3JED / VK3IRL http://vkradio.com
