Hello Bj”rn,

On Saturday March 10 2018 23:52, you wrote to me:

 BF> {W32 API error 10065} A socket operation was attempted to an
 BF> unreachable host

 BF>    Now I get this:

I would not worry too much about the different error responses. In my 
experience the binkd error reports are always a bit cryptic and erratic.

The bottom line is that your he.net tunnel is not working.

o If this is due to your mobile ISP blocking protocol 41 as Tommi suggested, 
the only solution I see is to change provider.

o From my SixXs days, I remember I had a task running that pinged the SixXs 
side of my tunnel every second. I do not recall why this was needed, it is too 
long ago, but without it, the tunnel would not stay up.

o For my he.net tunnel I had to explicitly tell the firewall to pass prootol 
41.

o Have you tried the heartbeat option of he.net? I have never used it myself, 
but from what i understand, it deals with tunnel endpoints at the client side 
that have a dynamic IPv4 address.


I hate to do this, but I am afraid I shall have to flag you as temporary IPv6 
down in the list of IPv6 nodes. Accuracy over vanity...


Cheers, Michiel
