Tunnels work, but they really are getting old.  I have run 3ffe:: 6bone, =
HE tunnels, and (currently) aiccu.  They all work very reliably, and I =

hardware, and the software, to making that go.  But the bottom line is =
that 200+ms RTTs to my servers over v6 tunnels simply can't compete with =
20ms RTTs on native v4.  I know my code works over v6, but how can I =

This past weekend I bit the projectile and decided to flip my service =
over to Teksavvy.  The latter have native v6, claim to offer /48s, and =
have the audacity to charge me $10/month less than Telus.  I'm game.  =
More importantly, after eight years of Telus promising an IPv6 beta, I =
can tell them to
