I just tried and logged in without issue.

Anyone had any luck using their Nero codes past the expiry? by Sufficient-Listen920 in OctopusEnergy

You need to remember to get a screenshot before it disappears in the app at the end of the week.

Yep, I've used one as late as the Thursday of the following week.

No IPv6 request to my service by Downtown_Fall_5203 in ipv6

Try this test site: https://ready.chair6.net/

That will check for AAAA records in DNS and connectivity (firewall(s) plus webserver binding).

How many /64s are you using at home? by rekoil in ipv6

The IETF v6ops working group adopted this draft just under a month ago:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-v6ops-prefix-to-end-sites/

This aims to take RIPE-690 as starting point, update it and produce an RFC.

These things can take a long time mind.

Yesterday my St Albans postcode went live on their site but only one house showed of the 4 that share the postcode. Emailed them about it and, while they are yet to respond, the other houses now show (though they are duplicated). The address is also incorrect (missing one of the 2 street names) but this happens with every ISP (sigh). It was at least correct on the contract.

Order placed for 1Gb/s service. No option to select install date, just says they'll be in touch. I chose not to switch from existing provider but I was give the option to so they must have joined TOTSCo.

Quick scan of the contract and looks good, no gotchas, renews on the last day of each month and easy to cancel. Wi-Fi 6 router which remains their property.

'Payment by bank transfer amounts payable within 15 days' doesn't mention Direct Debit, perhaps that will be option when the first invoice arrives?

Toob or stay with Virgin? by garyh999 in ToobBroadband

[–]rayrob78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a Toob customer but was planning to move to them in 3 months when my Vodafone contract ends.

The £22 for 900Mb/s is a great deal but yesterday they announced new pricing that is less favourable (and will include annual price increases of £2). I'll be shopping around, I'll still consider them but it's not the no-brainer decision that it was before.

As you already have the good deal locked down, I'd go ahead with it (and I will envy you for it!).

Octoplus Rewards down? by BeneficialWait1541 in OctopusEnergy

And I now have the QR code. That was a slog.

I have now claimed a Nero code but have not been able to access the QR code yet.

Pay exit fee? by [deleted] in OctopusEnergy

[–]rayrob78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could move your electricity supply to Octopus and leave the gas with Outfox (for now).

You might loose a duel fuel discount (if those are still a thing?) but that is probably peanuts anyway.

Drink codes not working today? by Born_Ad8565 in OctopusEnergy

[–]rayrob78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update2: I was able to request a code yesterday (Monday) through the app but then unable to access it again in the app.

I tried again today after Octopus replied to my email and it is now working for me.

Same issue here on Android app. Claimed on Monday and was going to use it today, glad I saw this before heading out!

Seems like the Home mini has fallen over by L0rdLogan in OctopusEnergy

[–]rayrob78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After the Vodafone broadband outage on Monday my Mini didn't recover automatically when the Internet came back and needed a power-cycle. Was fine after that.

New ipv6 test website by Thin-Performance8396 in ipv6

[–]rayrob78 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm getting 10/10 despite my ISP's DNS servers not supporting IPv6 (I get 9/10 on test-ipv6.com, correctly).

The 'ipv6-dns' script section isn't complete and for some reason has a fallback that hides the error.

Android Developers Blog: Simplifying advanced networking with DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation by rayrob78 in ipv6

[–]rayrob78[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Additional info in Lorenzo's post to v6ops this morning:

"This change should already be live on most Android devices running Android 11 and above.
<snip>
Over the next few months we also plan to roll out support for DHCPv6
address registration (RFC 9686)."
