Scope

Multiple users are affected. If the forum is currently available only to people with TCP/IPv6 connectivity: probably a majority of users.

From #freebsd chat:

Screenshot below:
  • upper window – TCP/IPv6 tunnel temporarily taken down
  • lower window – TCP/IPv6 tunnel brought up

– the Page could not be loaded message does use the style that's preferred for the forum.

Compare with this, shared by Feigr in IRC (the same message, different style):

Why does the FreeBSD system from the thread starter only use IPv4? :eek:

:) enabling TCP/IPv6 at the operating system level might not work around the issue if …

the Internet service provider does not provide TCP/IPv6 connectivity 😱

https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html#tab=per-country-ipv6-adoption I'm in a 33% adoption country. At a glance, India has more than 50%.

<https://forums.thinkbroadband.com/general/t/4667422-re-ipv6.html> (2020-12-03) apparently three of the top five ISPs did not offer IPv6, I'm with one of those ISPs, I assume that the situation now is the same.

It works only on my Phone or other Linux machine

chris35 both connected to the same router as the FreeBSD machine?
 
For me, FreeBSD forums don't work on my computer, if I've recently used my Android phone to access it using Wifi for the same router.
 
traceroute forums.freebsd.org

Better now, although it took a long time to complete:

A subsequent run of traceroute6 forums.freebsd.org seemed to get nowhere. The next run, around 13:30:45 BST, completed in less than four seconds.

At least one person who was previously unable to get proper Forum content can now get the content. (I found much the same; temporarily taking down my TCP/IPv6 tunnel did not prevent me from using the Forum.)
 
eternal_noob, it seems that lately, at least with my ISP, FreeBSD doesn't set up ipv6 automatically while Linux does. There was an ipv6 thread around awhile ago. That might be the reason.

My own traceroute, from NYC, was timing out after going from my ISP to level3, though ping is working with both ipv4 and 6.
 
Had this issue, switched to cellular and it worked. Just assumed it was an IPv6 related issue and waited it out.
 
It was unreachable to me too. I am currently working on implementing ipv6.
So thank you all for the incentive - I occasionally think, why bother, when things do work as they are...
You can repeat doing this, for my testing ;) - I am only an hour or so away from getting the first rough connectivitiy thru to my desktop...
 
I think I put my results in the thread that grahamperrin linked, but for what it's worth I have found, only with wireless connections, not wired, that after everything comes up, I have to run
Code:
 service rtsold restart
before I get ipv6 to the outside.
 
a long time to complete:

This morning, forty-six seconds. Should I be concerned?

You're also timing the DNS resolving of the intermediate hosts, not all of them are actually resolvable. And timing the timeouts that occur at step 5, 6 and 7. It's irrelevant how long it takes for traceroute(8) to run. The only thing that matters are the RTT of the hops.
 
Why does the FreeBSD system from the thread starter only use IPv4?
I don't set up IPv6 during the build and block it both ways with pf firewall.

The forums were down all night 8-22-2021. I used one the the free website that check site outages and it reported it as down.
