I'd love to embrace ipv6, but my ISP's official line, for as long as I can remember, is 'planning it, details to come'.

I don't expect them to move forward on it until significant sites become ipv6 only as they've admitted that they have more than enough ipv4 addresses for their subscriber base, so there's very little incentive for them to do anything atm.

My ISP went "we're planning it", "it's in progress", "we cancelled it", "there's not enough demand", and they're a pretty large ISP in my country.

You can request free IPv6 connectivity through the Hurricane Electric tunnel broker at ipv6.he.net

Thanks, I've actually looked at that in the past, but I'm not sure what their throughput is, and I'd have to configure each device individually as the router I have can't be configured for it.

I think I've still got my HE IPv6 t-shirt somewhere, from when I completed their readiness quiz so years ago!

Edit: I actually decided to set up a tunnel, just to see how well it worked, and it turns out my ISP supplied router won't forward the protocol 41 packets anyway, so that's a total no-go.

I suppose I could probably set up a small VPS and Wireguard vpn, then forward the IPv6 packets that way?

https://route48.org/ provides 6 in 4 tunnels and wireguard is an option. Their webpage is a mess, but more info is available behind the login, IIRC. I got part way through and then decided to just use a Hurricane Electric tunnel because HE has presence at the nearest internet exchange and it was more familiar.
