This is where IPv6 comes into play, provided that you can connect from
an IPv6 network back home (as I do).

TCD has been known to play with IPv6 for a long time but for some
reason, they still completely block IPv6 traffic between the internet
and themselves. I have ranted about this a few times and still fail to
understand why this is such a big issue for them.

I am using sixxs.net as a tunnel broker although I've heard that my
provider (Smart) has something in the works for native IPv6 (which
would be so nice since this is what I have at work :)
