Thank you for the information. I just wish they would get it all working.
At this point I would be happy with a GRE tunnel to a router that had IPv6.
I use tunnel broker now but with the low lease time of the TW dhcp server i
have to run the updater script just about every hour to keep the tunnel up.
/beginrant When I called the tech support line trying to get information
about their IPv6 plans it was like talking to a brick wall. Eventually I
got a supervisor on the phone and he stated that there was no need for
IPv6. Everytime I talk to their support I feel dumber and dumber. They
don't even know the difference between a software issue and a network issue
in most cases. I called about seeing extremly high latency at the border
router as seen by traceroute at 2 seperate locations and they refused to do
anything until I requested them to talk to their supervisor. They put a
ticket in to the advanced tech support but I never heard a word from them.
/endrant... So maybe they can't do IPv6 until they get the network issues
taken care of. Somedays I miss having qwest, their tech support was great.
My account was tagged in someway and they usually asked if I would like to
be sent straight to level 2 support once they looked up my account. Maybe
someone from TW tech support will eventually see our messages and give the
official response.
