My firewall is running openSUSE 11.3 on an old computer. I installed
the Linux version of the tunnel software, which connects to the tunnel
broker in Montreal (there are others around the world). It's reliable.
My home network is fully IPv6 ready, including DNS, with all my
computers getting IPv6 addresses, in addition to IPv4. Even my Nexus
One smart phone runs IPv6 when connected via WiFi to my home network.
gogoNET can be used in single address or subnet modes. If you register
your account you can get static addresses (required for subnet mode).
They hand out a /56 subnet, which is comprised of 256 /64 subnets.
There is no charge for this service. All in all, it works well. There
are other tunnel brokers, such as he.net. He.net hands out /48 subnets,
but I have no experience with them.
I use subnet mode to my home network and also run the client in single
address mode on my notebook computer, when away from home. All my home
network computers have public IPv6 addresses.
BTW, there are now some consumer grade routers that support IPv6
tunnelling (6in4 tunnel), but I haven't used any of them.

There is a way to get more IP addresses, you could tunnel to a
provider that would give you more and have all of your traffic
delivered over the tunnel
I do that to get my own IPv6 /56 subnet (2^72 addresses*). I get it from
gogoNET http://gogonet.gogo6.com.
* I haven't used them all yet. ;-)
