I used this guide to set up IPv6 with the anycast prefix method. When I ping6 an IPv6 host, the packets get sent, but I don't receive any replies. I know they get sent because TX packets gets incremented in the ifconfig output for the tunnel interface. My tunnel interface info is:

Code:

8: eth0ipv6@NONE: <NOARP,UP,10000> mtu 1480
inet6 2002:a87a:f811::1/16 scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 ::168.122.248.17/128 scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

Is there any more setup I need? The guide said it was all automatic, but it seemed too good to be true. Do I need to be registered with a tunnel broker anyway? Am I just unlucky that I don't have an IPv6 router close enough to be able to use the automatic method?

Edit: Apparently my ISP blocks 6to4 tunneling so I now use miredo which works great.
