Includes being able to kick your line and do connection tests and such! Not sure how good the IPv6 is as I haven't tried using it for the last six months. Vaguely tempted to look at one of the tutorials and try again some time. They are up to $10 / month more than TPG but I'm pretty happy with them. Don't forget if you want to run a service you'll need a static IP ($10 a month more) for TPG (last I looked) $5 for Aussie and be aware of port filters and CG-NAT (carrier grade NAT). That said Aussie BB will lift any filtering (you have to ask) and if you say you play games will pull you off the carrier grade NAT and your DHCP IP very rarely changes (mine never has in a year). I believe the $5 at Aussie will automatically get the CG-NAT + port filtering removed. Andrew
