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.
