Its not the IPV6 in your area, its the type of IPV6 service that is supported. I'm not into IPV6 yet, but I don't think Rogers supports native IPV6. 6RD yes, but I don't know all of the details that differentiate the two. Its a little interesting as I believe that Techsavvy or Start supports native IPV6 and some of their comm lines piggyback off of Rogers Network. So, its a corporate decision. Others have pushed for it, but as I said earlier, there hasn't been any recent posts by anyone from Rogers on this issue. For all I know it might be a dead issue within Rogers.
Its a pretty sad situation in Canada overall. I think the adoption rate is less than 1 % but I might be wrong. Here's a recent article on IPV6:
I suspect that all routers support IPV6 at the present time. The problem is that Rogers does not fully support IPV6. So, with a little investigation and effort, you could get some version of IPV6 up and running, the question is, is that the version that you want or need? Hopefully others can chime in here and provide some advice.
Its hard to say and may vary from one thing to another.
But i have run into that at work before too, on PCs.
Where there is a machine having some lag/connection issues.. hickups, etc.
Disabling IPv6 on the unit.. it seems to stop.
I think its TRYING To connect via it.. failing.. but it ends up taking up resources, or something.
Many people have asked those same questions, a long time ago it seems. And yet, here we still are, with no answers and with no roadmap detailing the IPV6 implementation. Kinda similar to the Nextbox fiasco, no answers and no roadmap.
