   As a side note, Google search over ipv6 is broken. They're basically   
   rejecting requests. While I configured my PCs to prefer ipv4 over ipv6   
   anyway (a tunnel is always going to be slower than native ipv4), I   
   couldn't find a way to do so with the Android phones. I ended up   
   turning my home ipv6 tunnel off until its fixed.
