The script is only meant to be automatically executed by the system from if-up.d directory. When automatically executed the ICD_CONNECTION_TYPE ought to be correctly set.

When run manually from terminal... you need to know what you are doing and set preconditions correctly yourself Maybe a manual execution option should be added to the script? Improvement suggestions are welcome, we are still working on the feature

Anyone get this ipv6 only connection up and running?
http://code.google.com/p/n900ipv6/wiki/README

I can't get the "register-connection-type" script to run. Keep getting "Permision denied" error message on the script. Probably it's my lack of Linux/N900 knowledge, but I still managed to get the dual stack setup working without too much trouble, so maybe it's not just me .

It looks like ICD_CONNECTION_TYPE is unset for the current terminal session. I assumed that was the reason it didn't work, but it seems my problem was incorrect APNs in the script. Otherwise the script seems to work well, I should have done more testing before posting

Got my confirmation this morning. Everything appears to be working well. Used the directions from here as suggested above.

Got the email, switched over to 3g and everything connected right up. Seems to take slightly longer than normal, but not bad.

So far so good.

*edit* slightly longer to establish a connection to 3g, download speed seems faster.

Another neat part about this service is that T-Mobile has signed up for Google's IPv6 content, so all the Google stuff comes over IPv6 natively (if you are using the T-Mobile USA DNS server 2607:FB90:BEEF:A::1)

I signed up for the beta test and followed the instructions in n900-ipv6.garage.maemo.org.; i'm using the latest titan-kernel, edited 00_enable_apn_ipv6 file to reflect the ipv4 APN (using internet3.voicestream.com) and ipv6 APN.
'ifconfig' shows only "gprs0" and obviously no swimming turtles for me.

any suggestions where to begin the troubleshooting?

Any downside to this? Anyone on the $5 loyalty unlimited data plan using it with an N900?

I don't know of any downside, if you dont like it you can always delete the scripts and roll back to the old kernel. My understanding is that you need the unlimited data plan, how much you pay for it not relevant.
