Similar(?) Tunnel -> VPS problem

I believe I might have a similar issue to amwdrizz's with a VPS I'm renting (different provider though).

I'm not exactly sure how to ask this, so here's an information dump - I can clarify if needed!

The VPS' IP address is 2607:f3f0:2::a061:e2a4

Another IP in the same network (different server): 2607:f3f0:2::309b:a9b0

I'm unable to reach either of these address through my tunnelbroker or via a couple of HE looking glasses but I am able to on another provider with native IPv6.

Tunnel Area: SEA1

Unsure why one produced more information than the other.

Here are a couple from the looking glass:

My provider isn't sure where they should go from the above as they don't peer with HE - could someone please point me in the right direction with what might be wrong?

Thanks in advance all!

Could you try traceroute from your VPS to your HE tunnel IP and see where the traffic being routed to?

Traceroutes from my VPS to 2607:f3f0:2::a061:e2a4
~snip~

Thanks! I'll pass those along

Your provider has some Level3 IPv6 connectivity, so they should know how to get to HE's IPv6: http://bgp.he.net/AS16724#_graph6

However it looks like they heavily use Cogent for all their IPv6 routes, so perhaps that L3 path is simply ignored. You won't get to HE via Cogent :)

Thanks! I've given them the link to this thread - I'll update again once they reply. :)
