Hello Andrew,

On Saturday November 30 2013 21:49, you wrote to me:

My ICIDU did not support it either,

And then I found out, I could not make it rout a subnet....

And so I decided on another road. I went for a router that coud handle the tunnel end point for me. OpenWRT on a Linksys WRT54g

I have alreay taken that step two years ago. Now I wait for native IPv6 from my ISP. They do not seem to be in a hurry... :-(
