You probably know about this already, but there are free IPv6 tunnel brokers you can use to experiment. I previously used Hurricane Electric's tunnel, back before Comcast had native IPv6 support: https://www.tunnelbroker.net/ https://www.tunnelbroker.net/
- Decade 6y agoI previously used Hurricane Electric, too, but Netflix blocked it. A more practical challenge, Hurricane Electric is a 6in4 tunnel, not layered over TCP nor UDP. Some ISP-provided residential gateway devices (AT&T) don’t support 6in4, not even if you configure your device as a “DMZ” with a public IP address. Also, I frequently find myself in situations with IPv4 NAT and no public IPv4 addresses at all. The only free IPv6 tunnel service that supported UDP was SixXS, which shut down in 2017. Nowadays, AT&T supports IPv6 natively, and I went through an annoying amount of effort to bypass their gateway device and control the entire /60 instead of being limited to a /64 and being limited by their NAT. https://github.com/jaysoffian/eap_proxy https://github.com/jaysoffian/eap_proxy
