Dear all,
Today my dsl connection got upgraded from 16Mbps/1Mbps to 100Mbps/40Mbps.
I am using a hurricane electric tunnel for years now to make services running on my own server available via ipv6, and was always very pleased.
After the upgrade, I ran a speed test, and discovered that upload speed via the hurricane electric tunnel is really slow:
ipv4: 69.75 Mbps (download), 40.66 Mbps (upload), M-Net Telecommunications
ipv6: 62.54 Mbps (download), 1.04 Mbps (upload), Hurricane Electric
While ipv6 download speed is really good, ipv6 upload speed is never more than 1.8Mbps. I am using the Berlin server.
I know this is a free service, but nevertheless I'd like to ask if the very slow upload speed is normal (or capped), or if there is a chance to get higher upload speed (15-20Mbps would be fine).
Thanks for help!
Robert
EDIT: Just made some more tests and found out that the Frankfurt (Germany) server gives me almost perfect upload speed:
ipv6 (Berlin): 62.54 Mbps (download), 1.04 Mbps (upload), Hurricane Electric
ipv6 (Frankfurt): 43.06 Mbps (download), 40.14 Mbps (upload), Hurricane Electric
So that seems to be a problem with the Berlin server? Anybody here who knows if this is a temporary problem?
EDIT2: Moved the Berlin tunnel back to the original ipv4 after the tests with the Frankfurt tunnel, and the problem is gone. I now get full download and upload speed from the Berlin server. Must have bee a temporary connection problem on either side (presumably my side...).
