We successfully migrated our Melbourne POP from Equinix ME1 to NextDC M1, improving latency and peering for customers in Victoria and Tasmania. Most customers experienced only 10–15 minutes of downtime, and the move introduced direct low‑latency transit via GSL. Our subscribers now benefit from reduced latencies and better local peering with Edge IX and VIC IX.

We recently ran into a few surprising cases of incorrect DHCPv6 client behavior across several vendor implementations (Fritz!box and Telstra Netgear V7610 CPE). These clients were failing to properly request or renew leases, leading to inconsistent connectivity and degraded user experience. This post breaks down how we diagnosed the issue, the workarounds we implemented, and what it reveals about the broader state of IPv6 support in consumer devices.
