Yes, that's an ipv6 network address.
Almost all ISP don't support it (yet) unfortunately nativly. You can het a free tunnel however from tunnelbroker.net, together with 2^64 public addresses. (and your not stuck to a specific provider anymore)
As I don't need ipv6 now, I'll just store that info for the future :-)
In your case it's funny that you endup with _only_ an IPv6 address. Most sites that publically support ipv6, have both 1pv4 and ipv6 addresses tied to their name.
Furthermore, this adress in neither (reversed) resolvable nor ping6-able
Yep, it is funny. Another redirector bug? A curious one if it is.
Nonsense. It has nothing to do with the redirection, if your client isn't able to properly resolve / use a host name for whatever reason.
