HE IPv6 space has been tagged as a vpn type service by Netflix, since it has
users all over the world, but it's space is all geolocated in the US. If HE had
geolocated the blocks of each POP to the country the POP resided in, and put
some rules around geolocation of using each POP (IE Canadian r
It is easy to use a nearby linode server as an ipv6 vpn. Back when I was still
doing it (I too went native ipv6), I used wireguard and babel and
source specific routing to bring ipv6 anywhere I felt I needed it.
Linode will give you your own ipv6/64 if asked. If asked especially
nicely you can get
Sadly, my home provider, RCN, which is otherwise hugely better than Comcast and
Verizon provisioning wise, still won't provide IPv6 to its customers. It's a
corporate level decision. I know the regional network operations guys, which is
why I know about the provisioning - they have very high-end
Thanks, Colin, for the info. Sadly, I learned all about the licensing of
content in the industry back about 20 years ago when I was active in the
battles about Xcasting rights internationally (extending "broadcast rights" to
the Web, which are rights that exist only in the EU, having to do with
Netflix could just redirect requests from HE.NET address ranges to IPv4 only
servers and that would solve the issue for all HE.NET customers. This isn’t
the case of attempting to circumvent GEOIP rules. They can detect that the
connection is coming from a HE.NET address range, they can easily
I recently upgraded service from 150up, 10dn Mbps to xfinity's gigabit
(with 35Mbps up) tier, and picked up a DOCSIS 3.1 modem to go with it.

At the moment, however, my WRT1900AC isn't up to the task of dealing
with these sorts of downstream rates.
So I'm looking at the apu2, which from this post:

So, for higher bandwidth plans people started using raspberry pi4bs with an
additional usb3 Ethernet dongle. Its WiFi is not really up for the task but it
does seem to make a mean wired only router, the quad A76 cores seem to be
capable to reliably shape up to 1 gigabit with cpu cycles to spare.
