Title: Is YOUR ISP IPv6 ready?
Post by: Skywing on June 26, 2003, 11:44 PM
After installing Windows Server 2003 (which natively supports IPv6), I was pleasantly surprised that my ISP already has full IPv6 support.  In fact, I was able to reach a surprisingly large number of IPv6 sites.  Has anybody else had similar experiences?

unfortunetaly no. my ISP doesn't even appear to have IPv6 expansion plans for consumer lines, which leaves me relying on IPv6 in 4 tunnels such as those provided by hurricane electric (http://he.net) and FreeNet6 (http://freenet6.net) which tend to be unreliable.

In due time i suppose...

Just wondering, what's your IPv6 address (or at least subnet)?

HE sucks... any time I have to connect to a server through their lines I get tons of slowdown, latency etc.

Hmm, is this all assuming that you're using DHCP to get your IP information?

While we're on the subject, does anyone know where Windows stores the preferred IP in the registry?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip
Dig there.

IIRC, you must use dynamic configuration with IPv6.  So, yes.
