Hi, What would you recommend as a geek-friendly ISP for a "consumer price level" glass fiber-based Internet connection in Israel, in Qesarya specifically? I'd like to have dual stack IPv4 + IPv6, with one fixed IPv4 address and a fixed IPv6 prefix (whatever it is one gets as standard... a /48, a /56...). Not sure if I can hope for competent customer support in English, but if that exists, even better.
My family currently has Bezeq with a fixed IPv4 in our "2nd home / vacation home", that was setup by a local guy that knows a guy that knows a guy that knows my mother, without my intervention, supposed to be a "surprise we got fast Internet now, you can now spend more time in Israel and work remotely" for me, and well... I'd like us to upgrade to something better. The guy tells me that if we activate IPv6 on our Bezeq connection, we will not only loose the fixed IPv4 address, but also be behind double (carrier-grade, I assume) NAT, which would be major suckage. Is that true? Anyone has experience with that? Is it realistic to hope significantly less than 100ms ping times to Western Europe from Israel? That's what I currently get, and in usage as "remote desktop" / VNC / ssh sessions (with graphical / X11 programs running over the link), this kind of lag is really felt...
