      @JKnott HE probably will not work, because the topic-creator has no reachable and pingable IPv4-address, which is a demand from HE.

        The tunnel was for use at the other end, so that he can use it to get to his IPv6 address. This is exactly what I used to do, when I set up my notebook computer with a single IPv6 address via tunnel. He wants to reach an IPv6 address from work, which supports IPv4 only. So, he configures a computer at work to get an IPv6 address from he.net and he can then reach his home IPv6 address.

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

          Doesn't he have at least a firewall address at work? I recall the restriction on the static address, but I thought that had been dropped. I haven't worked with he.net, so I don't know the details of working with them. If not them, what about another tunnel provider?

            OK - thanks very much everyone, I will have a look at he.net and see what they can do. There seems to be a free service so a good place to start.

              As I mentioned, I don't have experience with he.net, so perhaps someone else here can help you with it.
