Hello Martin,

I started as a point and cosysop of 2:28/777 in 1992 and got my first node number in 1997

I didn't keep a good track of my IPv6 history. I became interested around 2005 I think. My first SixXS tunnel dates from 2007 or so. The original plan was to have the tunnel end point on my Fido machine running XP. The idea was that that machine was on 24/7 and so act as an IPv6 router for the whole LAN. But to my dissapointment, that didn't work. My understanding is that no one ever got it to work. So I went a different route. I has a Linksys WRT flashed with OpenWrt had a he.net tunnel endpoint installed on it. That gave me IPv6 om the whole LAN.

In mid 2016 I finally got native IPv6 from my ISP (Ziggo, daughter of Liberty Global))

My first IPv6 binkp connect was later that year.


Cheers, Michiel
