IPv6 VPN
I have IPv6 connectivity when I am at home and in the office. However, when I am outside, like in a coffee shop, most of time, if not all, I don't have IPv6 connectivity. Now I'm wondering whether there is any VPN that could help me to get IPv6 connectivity when I connect from an IPv4 only environment? Thanks.

If you have a v6 subnet, I suppose you could use OpenVPN?

I use my synology nas and the openvpn package. My synology is able to receive a ipv6 subnet via subnet delegation from my cable provider.
Setting up ipv6 on openvpn is really difficult, but possible.
You could also use the aiccu tool (https://www.sixxs.net/tools/aiccu/) to have ipv6 connectivity on ipv4-only networks. I used aiccu before I had ipv6 over openvpn.
It's not difficult on pfSense, you fill in an IPv6 subnet for the VPN and providing that Subnet is correctly routed to the pfSense box it usually just works.
Reminds me need to setup a OVPN instance that listens on IPv6 at some point.
socat ipv4 to ipv6 might work https://serverzen.wordpress.com/2016/08/28/ssr-relay-using-ipv6/
