Anyone willing to test ipv6 VPS

Hello is anyone willing to test the ipv6 connectivity of a VPS from me. Appears to be working when I tested it, however I am not really into the ipv6 and I might be missing something.
It is not a native ipv6, it is tunneled through HE's in Seattle, giving +3-5ms
Comments
Sure. Whats the test IP?
Ye sure, gimme the IP and i'll ping it for you
just-ping.com works with ipv6 too
Weird, getting 10% lost from some locations on ipv6. I must have screwed something up.
The IP:
2001:470:e882::6104:7bd1
Edit: Even more than 10% on some locations from just-ping.com
50 packets transmitted, 33 received, 34% packet loss, time 49034ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 175.501/178.070/181.482/1.486 ms
from Duesseldorf, Germany.
It is weird though. I am not into ipv6 myself, been reading a lot though. I probably miss-configured something. This is through HEs tunnel in Seattle.
34% Packet Loss...HE...NORMAL!
PAD, are you being sarcastic, or is it something common?
I did contact them to see what they would respond, but still. As I am only 3-4ms away from their Seattle location, thought there should be no packet loss.
HE.net has a rep for packetloss, random drops, etc.
I've had experience with them too, so if you're ONLY using HE.net it can be a problem.. get some redundancy
@Jack
Where is that from?
Appears that half of the locations don't have problems on just-ping. The others varry between 5 to 30-40% packetloss.
HE.net has a transatlantic issue going on right in this moment, you have chosen a bad day to be setting this up, lol.
i.e. not your fault, just wait it out.
Probably is an issue in the HE servers? Doing another tunnel may... work better?
@rm_ Oh, so, is broken :P
My HE tunnel (going via the Amsterdam POP) gives me
Ping statistics for 2001:470:e882::6104:7bd1:
Packets: Sent = 100, Received = 72, Lost = 28 (28% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 186ms, Maximum = 373ms, Average = 193ms
Weird
Can't ping it from here, nor from my IPV6 only VPS..
From Denver
From LA
The problem seems to be in the link at Europe-USA. That's why your results are ok.
Remember they have bandwidth limitations on their tunnel routers as well so if it's oversubscribed packet loss would be expected.
