Honestly I was trying to make that sound like a "missed connections" ad there for a moment, but seriously I'd buy a /40 right now if possible to have non-tunneled IPv6 if I could. It's so weird being on US internet - your content distributor makes you feel like a criminal because their content provider has standing orders to deny you from viewing the content they provide and the only other thing you can do about it is turn off the thing that gives you access to the way you make the money to pay for their stuff.

As an alternative, there are multiple cloud service offerings that will advertise your IPv6 allocations on your behalf direct to a server in their data centers. It seems pretty tongue-in-cheek, and satisfying, to turn up a *<insert favorite virtual router instance> *and then route through it. The Internet is such an amazing place.

They thought I was weird as anything. If there are any Verizon FiOS network engineers on the thread, a fellow Verizon employee would thank you kindly for an off-thread email regarding BGP advertisement (I'll buy the IPv6 block and the drink-of-choice, you configure my account to listen for route advertisement). Strange that it has to come to this to get "legit" IPv6 service.

The recommended ACLs are a functional temporary workaround, but I've also opened a request with Netflix. On Fri, Jun 3, 2016 at 7:54 PM, Mark T.

Not going to be disabling IPv6 here either. + HAD native IPv6 from Time Warner, but they decided to in their wisdom to disable IPv6 service for anyone that has an Arris SB6183 due to an Arris firmware bug. Andthey aretaking their sweet time pushing out the fixed firmware update thatComcastand Cox seemed to be able to push to their customers last fall. -Mark Ganzer On 6/3/2016 4:49 PM, Cryptographrix wrote:Depends - how many US users have native IPv6 through their ISPs? If I remember correctly (I can't find the source at the moment),HE.netrepresents something like 70% of IPv6 traffic in the US. And yeah, not doing that - actually in the middle of an IPv6 projectatwork at the moment that's a bit important to me.

You just need need native ipv6. On the other hand it would be nice if Netflix would try the other protocol before blocking.
