I just asked for it. Many, many years ago: https://samknows.com/ This is my second one. The first box had 100 Mbps ports. I asked for an upgrade when they started issuing boxes with 1000 Mbps ports.

Later: I just received an e-mail from them in response to my question if they actually do something with IPv6. This is the answer: === === Ati (SamKnows) 19 Feb, 10:23 GMT Hi Michiel, Thanks for getting in touch. As of yet, we have not adopted ipv6 tests. We report the ipv6 address if the Whitebox receives it, but we don't really do anything with it. Kind regards, Ati The SamKnows Team === === Cheers, Michiel --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303 * Origin: he.net certified sage (2:280/5555) .
