Hallo Michiel,

I did not use SixXs, but it stopped its service anyway some years ago.
The he.net tunnel ran fine for many, many years - and I had my fixed  
prefix where I even could provide my reverse DNS for.

The native IPv4+IPv6 connection from Telekom does work, but as it's  
only a consumer-grade connection, I don't get fixed addresses or a  
fixed prefix. But I found a workaround using Dynv6 :)

So my router (Fritz!Box) calls a script on one of my rented vServers  
(via a https request), which in turn sets the IPv4 address and the  
IPv6 prefix on Dynv6 and on my own DNS zone. And it seems to work fine  
:)

Regards,
Anna
