IPV6 causes slow internet access
Hi all, I just wanna direct your attention to a bug filed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/313218/ Now I come from India, where the largest ISP who has 50% of the market share is not ipv6 compliant so far. There is a on-going project to move to ipv6 by 2012 but till that doesn't happen we need a way to work through. Somethings from the Net for the same. http://www.tmcnet.com/usubmit/2008/12/03/3829993.htm http://www.vnunet.com/vnunet/news/2231905/ipv6-addresses-increase-300-per http://www.ciol.com/Technology/Networking/News-Reports/IPv6-growth-rises-300pc-in-two-years/41208113369/0/ The above is what we want or hope to going forward. The reality as it is :- http://broadbandforum.in/airtel-broadband/24732-when-will-we-have-ipv6-addresses/ Now I don't know how other developing and developed countries see the same. Perhaps some discussion and some resolution for the interim period. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal This email is licensed under http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

Would you put a comment on the bug report itself, please. It does take two reports to confirm the bug is an issue, which means two people where this is an issue need to confirm the bug is valid.

And while doing so, please answer the question posted on that bug. Where is there a slowdown? Is it the DNS lookup? Are you saying that having IPv6 enabled somehow cuts your download speed? I don't get what's going on. -- Mackenzie Morgan http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com apt-get moo signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

Please post any testing results to the *bug report* where I'll see them, *not* to this mailing list. Thanks in advance. Could people affected by the original problem reported at the top of this bug report please install the libc6 packages from here: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/cjwatson/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main You can find the necessary public key and instructions here: https://launchpad.net/~cjwatson/+archive/ppa This version of glibc incorporates a patch from Fedora which is said to address a similar-sounding issue, and I'd like to confirm whether it also fixes the problems people are encountering here. It would be nice if anyone with real IPv6 connectivity could also test this to ensure that I haven't broken anything for them. I've had a working IPv6 setup myself in the past, but it's broken at the moment and I thought I'd get this out for testing before spending too long trying to fix it. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@ubuntu.com] -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
