- IPv6 is tried , but takes forever and has 100% package loss (frecuent). - pinging IPv6 addresses works (very rare)
[...] that explains it very well. ping can be forced to use a certain protocol, but my webbrowser doing google searches (e.g. textbased W3M) seems to always try v6 if its available. Which just leaves the question: do you want to use IPv6 or do you prefer IPv4? In the first case, perhaps a tunnel provider can help as your current setup appears flaky at best. In the second case, it's probably better to find out how to disable IPv6 on your machine. Mvg, Guus Snijders

The second case seems the way to go, there are even related wiki articles about disabling IPv6. Took a while to understand whats going on ... -- cheers, Thorsten
