This happened to me over a year back. http://www.peachyphotos.com/blog/posts/netflix-and-hurricane-electrics-ipv6-service/ Briefly I swtched to just blackholing netflix's ipv6 range, then I tunnled my linode connection, then I switched to just universally using comcast native ipv6 (with source specific routing and static assignments on the key routers). I was VERY reluctant to do this as comcast reserves the right to change your ipv6 addressing at any point, and it changes if you change routers, but having to manually reconfigure a dozen routers and several servers if it ever changes seemed easiest. I dread renumbering... The vast majority of my traffic in the evenings is ipv6 now. > Rich > _______________________________________________ > Cerowrt-devel mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel -- Make Music, Not War Dave Täht CTO, TekLibre, LLC http://www.teklibre.com Tel: 1-831-435-0729 _______________________________________________ Bloat mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/bloat
