Hello Richard,

Mine is still working but SixXs has stopped accepting requests for new tunnels and Jeroen Massar shows signs of becoming tired of the project, so I think we should not expect much from SixXs any more.

It may not last forever either...

Not really considering that there is only one model of modem that supports their IPv6 and that it only provides dfor 8 bonded channel, which is not enough for the highest speed Ziggo offers. (300/30) So if someone upgrades to the highest speed, he/she gets a modem than does 16 bonded channels. But without IPv6. Same when a modems breaks. An asymetric process. When a customer dowgrades to a lower speed, his 16 channel IPv4 only modem is not replaced. Rumour has it that the Ubee is faded out anywy. So when an IPv6 capable modem breaks, chances are it is replaced with an IPv4 only modem. If the pool of outstanding IPv76 modems is not replenished, IPv6 deployment will go down. My guess is that explains the curve ghoing down again. They are not activeley rolling out any more... :(

 RM> Not allways the CPEs (I know of CPEs that have been tested 4 years

I strongly suspect that in this case it is the CPEs...


Cheers, Michiel
