Just came across these two helpful sites. You probably already have a plain ipv6 test site that tests your router, computer, and browser to see if they are ipv6 addressible such as http://test-ipv6.com/ .

I found two help sites today that may be helpful to someone else as well at some point. . .

http://ipv6eyechart.ripe.net/ is a dual stack test that will try to go out and reach 54 different serves across the globe that have both ipv4 & ipv6 enabled, and make sure that your browser sees and prefers ipv6 in a reasonable amount of time.


http://ipv6.chappell-family.com/ipv6tcptest/index.php is a IPV6 port scanner. The technical details of IPV6 are over my head, but I do know it means I'm probably more identifiable in more places as an individual machine/device. And old port scanners that worked over IPV4 may or may not be of any value, I just don't know. But, this is a really cool test, that runs quickly, and will check all common ports or ports that you define. You can mouse over the port # on the webpage and it will give you an explanation of what the port is usually used for. Very helpful.


Hopefully these site are of use to others.
