Hello Andre,

For private customers the only isp offering native IPv6 is XS4ALL. There are more for commercial customers, but as yet there is only XS4ALL for the private customer. XS4ALL has always been ahead of the pack. They were the first in NL to offer internet for private customers.

Need I add that the founder of XS4ALL, Philippe Rodrigues once was a Fidonet sysop? ;-)


Cheers, Michiel
