My provider recommends to disable IPv6 on Windows either as IPv6 creates lags in browsers and network flooding.
I can understand the lags caused by DNS issues, but flooding? How does that happen? If someone is running IPv6 on their network and uses a tunnel to get IPv6 access, then the ISP's network would never see an IPv6 packet.
Larger routing tables overflowing routers, perhaps. I read about this in a report, from the IEEE if I recall correctly. Or a side effect of some sort. Discovery broadcasts?? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 11.2 x86_64 "Emerald" GM (Elessar))
