And while none of the users who have a need ask (eg: yourself) the
ISPs won't do anything about it.

You appear to have a need (eg your OS supports it, but your lack of
connectivity is the problem).

Clearly it provides a benefit. The existence of IPv6 in the kernel is
obviously causing problems. Why fight the inevitable? The funny thing
is, it's probably easier to connect to a tunnel broker than to try out
all the things suggested in this thread.

The last time I configured a network for IPv6, we already had IPv6
capable routers and switches. A five minute job on a cisco router, a
two minute job on some L3 switches, and our network was able to
connect to IPv6.  Having done it before helps.

Cheers,

Dan
