There are other fixes, like disconnecting the gige connection to my

Something else i find disconcerting. There must be very few users running Linux on a
laptop, with IPv6, with wifi and gige connections. Maybe they just get pissed off and go
elsewhere when things like google or facebook fail to load. My biggest problem is
maintaining connections to the local kdc and various internal services which present as
dual stack.
I am seriously quite tempted to disable IPv6 on the subnets to which I connect.
If you only want to disable it on your laptop and/or a given interface you can always edit
/etc/sysctl.conf to include this line....
net.ipv6.conf.interfacename.disable_ipv6=1
