WebAfrica appears to be passing IPv6 in addition to IPv4 when connecting one of their PPPOE accounts on fiber. Their DNS servers are also returning IPv6 addresses for sites like speedtest.net and fast.com. When I do a whois on the IPv6 address received it comes back as invalid.

Their website fails to mention IPv6. Anyone know what their level of support is?
 
Anyone had any luck enabling IPv6 on WebAfrica? I'm using a Mikrotik Hap on latest RouterOS and IPv6 is setup correctly as far as I can tell, but I'm not getting the IPv6 address.

Really want to get this working to hopefully solve the useless YouTube bandwidth at the moment...

I forced my router to only connect to IPv6 and it worked.

I've been on IPv4/6 dual stack since I signed up last year September.
Hasn't really resolved the recent YT issues.
 
Thanks guys, damn looks like we're stuck with crappy streaming on YT for a while then :(
