I've made some changes tonight to update DNS for agency.bbs.nz and net1.fsxnet.nz to point to a new IPv6 record.

This will likely take a few hours to promulgate across the internet.

I'm hopeful you will be able to ping and poll 21:1/100 via IPv6 again.

It's a he.net tunnel via USA... I wish I could have a local ISP that offered
it but for now it's what I have to work with. :(

from my location it's not a huge difference ...

.... it's routed via USA anyway :).

Pinging from NZ to NZ via USA might add some latency though.

I don't get a reliable connection to port 24554 or 24556. It times out (on my binkd server) or it takes very long for a response (tested on another server).

No problems on the IPv4 address.

Yeah, pity you can't get it native. All of my systems here and in the cloud (multiple providers involved) are on native IPv6.

About the same from here on both IPv4 & 6:
