yea, so my 'saga' started with:

I had very borken things happen at home on my dlink-615 with their busted-ass IPv6 code. Specifics are here: http://serverfault.com/q/252083/2101

Although in that case, I wasn't trying to use it to route anywhere. It really was written as thought it Would Be the gateway.

The dlink stock firmwares even have support for he.net and other tunnel brokers now. But the stack isn't nearly as mature and there's too few users.

pfSense is the way to go here.

I'll try re-deploying the dir-615 it as an IPv6-only gateway device and see how it behaves.
