Does your ISP support IPv6?

@toroidalcore yes, but I have more latency with IPv6 :)))) (about 9ms to 20ms compared) and so they are very much lax about it.

@itsozgur Interesting.

@toroidalcore yes, but I purposely signed up to them because they are one of the few in my country that do.
Even so, i had to ask them to enable it

@toroidalcore Yes and no

Telefónica España supports IPv6 only on mobile network, it seems that in households they’re having problems to offer it

@amrtf It seems like mobile providers were a little quicker to catch on with IPv6. I think Verizon here had it on mobile before residential.

@toroidalcore
isp in general? yes. With my museum tech internet? no.

@dch @toroidalcore wow

@toroidalcore we, @aaisp, have for a very long time.

@theraspb @toroidalcore my isp (Rakuten Hikari, Western Japan, NTT West backbone) just sent me the email to change some settings to allow v6 last week. I'm gonna do it when I feel like it.

@toroidalcore My ISP is IPv6-native, and IPv4 is provided over a MAP-E tunnel, so to get IPv4 working you need a router with support for MAP-E. Domestic consumer routers support it, but e.g. Ubiquiti and OpenWrt only very recently gained support.

I pay an extra $5/mo for a public+static IPv4, otherwise you’re stuck being CGNAT where you get a pseudo-random range of ports forwarded.

$35/mo for 10 gigabit fiber.

@toroidalcore There’s an option missing: yes on fibre, no on mobile. As weird as that may seem.

@toroidalcore Residential: yes (but you need to opt-in via their customer portal)
Mobile: no (CGNAT all the way baby)

@toroidalcore@masto.hackers.town Don´t know.
Maybe i am too dumb to activate this.

IPv6 support was among my selection criteria when I choose my current ISP.

@toroidalcore

@toroidalcore annoyingly CenturyLink _used_ to halfass this with a 6rd tunnel. they got acquired by Lumen (now AT&T) and 6rd is completely broken and i’ve been told “it was a coincidence it worked to begin with”

@theraspb @toroidalcore yes but only for a few niche personal projects. I normally block it in any situation where ipv6 is not actively being used. (Surface attack reduction and all that.. not really useful but when it's active I've seen quite a few bots and not legit traffic)

@toroidalcore Yes, buy then doesn’t fully support IPv4…

@tristan Gotta love the working by coincidence bit.

@mkj It's only recently that it's looking like I have a choice of ISPs, at least terrestrial wired ones. Good to be able to put some pressure on them that way.

@kalleboo I'm envious, I pay $55 a month for gigabit down, 40 megabit with cable. Hoping to get symmetrical fiber soon, but still not that fast.

Were they forthcoming and telling you that you needed to set up MAP-E, or did you end up finding that out the hard way?
