Re: Best US Tunnelbroker for Youtube

Sorry, I wasn't clear. When my tunnel is not functioning correctly my end
hosts still have global v6 addresses and a route. The v6 tcp connections
would fail entirely, so v4 would handily win a tcp setup race. A v4-only
client does not experience huge delays in video loading. I'm not sure happy
eyeballs is implemented in Android.

working so well for the YouTube app).

Happy Eyeballs is only about TCP session setup race, not how the
established session performs. Normally with bias (headstart) for IPv6,
sometimes (Apple) egoistic and reckless without.

Best regards,
