It is an ethical problem. I will not route my full bandwidth via a third party just because I want IPv6. I don't want it. I'll wait till my provider provides it, if ever.
You wouldn't be routing your full bandwidth over the tunnel, only whatever IPv6 traffic you have. Which is probably less than 5%.
Anyway, this is about having fun, for people who want to experiment and discover and learn. Setting up a tunnel is about learning the ropes, getting familiar with IPv6 etc. If that's not for you, that's fine.
It could happen that a DVD download from SUSE wanted to use IPv6.
The main problem I think people have that forces them to disable IPv6 on their installs is "slow network", or failed connections. I think the DNS tells them of a site address as an IPv6, and of course, they can not connect.
If that's what happens, then the computer thinks it has an IPv6 address beyond a link local one (starts with fe80). It will not try to use IPv6, if it doesn't see an IPv6 route off the local network. Is there something misconfigured? As I said, I've never had an issue with IPv6, even when all I had was the link local address. Perhaps if you were to learn a bit about IPv6, you'd be able to determine what the issue is. You can also fire up Wireshark, to see what's actually happening.
The computers think there is a route, via the router. Perhaps. The router refuses, obviously, as there is no such route.
If that is the case, we're back to what I said and what James suggests above - it's a network configuration issue. There's nothing wrong with openSUSE nor with IPv6, it's a simply configuration issue. If you can't fix the router, that's a pity, but it's not fair to blame IPv6 or openSUSE.
I don't blame any, I blame the situation and I cope as I can... many people face that situation and respond by disabling IPv6. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
