about the only time that i saw this not working was with some mikrotik gear (which is \
in common use here). this was during a class we were teaching in CPT;  i forget the \
actual version of RouterOS. /126 worked ok.  and the operator, seemed happier with \
that (presumably it made sense looking at it from the "IPv4 mindset"

perhaps, someone with some RouterOS clue can suggest to the list, a stable+working \
version of RouterOS that supports this ?

my ISP at home uses /126 - manually configured, but i'm told their IPv6 solution \
isn't commercial yet.   i know that their parent_co uses this in the northern \
hemisphere, so i'm guessing it was a simple decision ... ;-)
