Hi Michiel!

30 Nov 2016 22:02, from Michiel van der Vlist -> Richard Menedetter:

 MV>>> So it seems. But I am not cancelling my tunnel accounts yet...
 RM>> Sixxs has done it for me ;)))
 MV> Mine is still working but SixXs has stopped accepting requests for new
 MV> tunnels

Indeed ... and they auto disabled my tunnel after a PoP went offline, and refused to reactivate it ...

 MV> and Jeroen Massar shows signs of becoming tired of the
 MV> project, so I think we should not expect much from SixXs any more.

Indeed

 RM>> But HE still works great.
 MV> It may not last forever either...

I cannot influence it.
Currently it works, and if it stops, I need to reevaluate.

 RM>> Hmmm .. actually slightly going downwards again ... strange.
 MV> Not really considering that there is only one model of modem that
 MV> supports their IPv6 and that it only provides dfor 8 bonded channel,
 MV> which is not enough for the highest speed Ziggo offers. (300/30) So if
 MV> someone upgrades to the highest speed, he/she gets a modem than does
 MV> 16 bonded channels. But without IPv6. Same when a modems breaks.

Strange ... in Austria they only offer IPv6 capable CPEs since some time now.
The only way to avoid DS-Lite is to use an older CPE, which are not offered any more.

I have a Ubee Bridge with DOCSIS 3.0 and no WiFi.
If it breaks down I get a new DOCSIS 3.1 CPE with WiFi and no public IPv4 any more ...

CU, Ricsi
