All I can say is that if it wasn't for HE tunnels I would be SOL. No provider here in east central Florida can even speak IPv6. Brighthouse is clueless. ATT told me maybe 2012 or 2013! So I tunnel to HE's POP in Miami. With this I can test and become dual stack operational. Yes, it is not as good as a native connection but in my position its the only game in town. Tom
