My first firewall ran Slackware and I used SuSE for years, until Rogers 
started providing native IPv6 using DHCPv6-PD, which SuSE couldn't 
handle.  That was over 6 years ago.  Prior to that I was using a 6in4 
tunnel to get IPv6 since May 2010.  With that, I had to compile the 
client software and it worked well.  I have a separate access point, 
mounted in my laundry room, as WiFi from my "office" doesn't cover the 
other end of my condo very well.
