    Has the Miredo server ceased to exist?

    Since my ISP does not yet support IPv6 and it won't open port 43 on its cable modem I was forced to revert from Hurricane IPv6 to Miredo.

    Hurricane's IPv6 gave a 20/20 ("it's native") rating. Miredo gave a 17/20 but was acceptable for most sites. My browser was set to prefer IPv6 over IPv4. A year ago, in July, the Miredo server was switched from rimlab.net to teredo.trex.fi, in Finland.

    About two or three weeks ago I noticed that my ifconfig listing did not show my IPv6 tunnel.
    Using "sudo systemctl status miredo.service" showed that the teredo.trex.fi server wasn't running.
    Today I gave Miredo another try. No joy.
    I used "isitdownrightnow.com" and was informed that the teredo.trex.fi was down for everyone.

    A Teredo server requires a lot of bandwidth, especially if it is the only one on the planet. An energy crisis in Finland has probably put it out of commission permanently.
