I would like to setup IPv6 support for my local network as my ISP has IPv6 support. They provide a /64 network, but when I use a linux router I can request another prefix in the /60 network range. I was able to create a linux router doing this. However, I have been unable to get RRA services...

A couple of days ago my Internect connection began behaving strangely. At one point I had a connection on my computer but no connection on my smart TV or iPad. After some fiddling I found I had no connection on my computer but connection on the TV and iPad. This "fiddling" involved relocating...
