As long as they're not charging you for it. Enjoy your new 10+ year old modem! :)

Good point. I'm guessing our ISPs here all don't force their equipment then, as they charge monthly for *everything*, including cable set top boxes, routers, any security equipment they offer, etc. I've always had my own router, but never bothered buying a modem yet.

I haven't done enough studying on modems to have an opinion on what's good or not. I currently have a Motorola Surfboard SB6141 which seems to have all the bells and whistles I currently need and/or want.
I would probably have bought a new modem on my own if it were to give considerably better speeds, but I'm currently paying for 50mb/5mb, and speedtest.net reports 60/6.. so I can't really complain. :)

That's probably the case, then.

Are you trying to connect to your fe80:* address? Or the actual address given by your provider?

Exactly. And like you, I have just disabled my he.net tunnel in case anything were to go wrong I won't be without IPv6 for long.
