===Tested IPv6 only configurations===

===IPv6 NAT64 gateway ===
AAISP provide an IPv6 to IPv4 gateway, which allows one to connect to the IPv4 world from an IPv6-only machine.
To use this, simply change the DNS server addresses to 2001:8b0:6464::1 and 2001:8b0:6464::2
 
Note that the IPv6 router advertisements from your router may still broadcast the normal DNS server addresses.
 
===How to test===
*http://ip6.help.me.uk
 
Each will return your corresponding IP address.
 
If you get bored looking for IPv6 websites, there is always http://loopsofzen.co.uk to keep you occupied.
