Okay, guess my PC/LAN/ISP doesn't support IPv6 yet.

If you're in Ontario, Rogers doesn't support IPv6 yet. If you want IPv6, then your only option is Bell (or a reseller, like Teksavvy).

I'm using Bell in Ontario. It could be either my Router doesn't support it, the Apartment isn't wired up to support it (if that's required?), my ISP doesn't support it in my area, or my Bell internet plan doesn't cover IPv6...

I'll ask them about it when they ring me up next time asking for more money.

Hmm... looked at this again and it looks like Rogers may have rolled out IPv6 last year.

I recall on Teksavvy I had to pay extra for a "static IP" to get IPv6. Not sure if you're with Bell directly, though.

Everyone in Ontario on TekSavvy should have IPv6 now without having to pay for a static IP address but at least for me it's still wonky at best.
