   Ouch! :(  I can't reproduce these results here, as I run native IPv6.

   I bet! :D

   Can take a look, though from this side of the world, there's a lot of variables   
   in the way.  Well, it does work,  at least on the default site. but as   
   expected, the results were poor - around 3.5Mbps each way, compared to   
   78.14/31.25, using a local speedtest.net server.
