Hmm, quite odd. At face value they're legit global IPv6 addresses, and that
implies you should have global IPv6 access - providing IPv6 addresses on
the phone would be the last step I'd do.

Telstra may have a more central "IPv6" switch they're using e.g. their DNS
server doesn't return AAAAs even if they're asked for by the client.

I know a revision of LTE uses VoIP for traditional voice calls, that might
be what those IPv6 addresses are being used for.
