How so? It is always fun to read that people have 'problems', but it is=20

Then again, if you are a real ISP, you will have to do what everybody=20
else in the business is doing:
- get a block from ARIN (or your favorite local RIR :)
http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/dfp/arin/ doesn't list you,
thus you might want to start out there
- arrange transit
- this generally means you are going to pay for bits
just like in the IPv4 world.
- fix your routers and the rest of your network
Though SixXS is there to get people going in using IPv6, it definitely=20
is not meant to support your full business process, if you require that, =
go pay somebody who can give you their full attention, there are lists=20
in the FAQ with organizations who can do that for you for that purpose.
