Yes, the IPv6 path across town is a bit comnvoluted and seems to involve Seattle.

Hi Alan,
Do you have ipv6 enabled on your computer?
www.fx.net.nz is ipv6 enabled, and I suspect if the website is loading slowly it may have to do with faulty v6 transit. (ie, if you are accessing it over a tunnel going via the US or EU)
You could try www2.fx.net.nz which will go to the same place, but does not have a v6 DNS record.
We haven't had any DoS attacks this evening that I'm aware of.

After observing the post, I attempted to access http://www.fx.net.nz/ and it timed out. And is doing so again this evening. Your thoughts? All else is functioning fine.
