[AusNOG] Internode IPv6 Support

[David Beveridge]

I am not suggesting that Internode IPv6 doesn't work, In fact, several
other Internode customers verify that.
It just didn't work for me over the NBN in my suburb with my equipment (all
three different lots of it).
Nevertheless, the Telstra Business services just worked right from the
start.
And apparently no-one could work out why.
