As a matter of interest, how can one tell if an ISP supports IPv6?
This is slightly OT, but I often think I'd like to try using ipv6,
but when I ask I'm given a purely theoretical reply,
which I don't understand, usually involving SixXS.
Are there simple instructions anywhere, just listing the commands to use,
and not telling me how many people in China are using the internet.
