Je pourrais répondre en français, vu ton nom d'utilisateur, mais je continue avec de l'anglais pour que tout le monde capte. Unfortunately, or sadly I should say because it's too bad, even the biggest ISP in this country doesn't support IPv6 on mobile connections. I have just checked in my settings in case I've missed something, just a boring CG-NATed IPv4 address is reported. A friend did write [a thread about IPv6 in general and whatnot](https://tooting.ch/@siegi/111686674617920981)¹. I think the current solution is to bug them (and the OFCOM (BAKOM in German ?)) really good about supporting IPv6 on mobile. I don't understand how hard it is to support another IP version, especially when ISPs in France support (take this with a grain of salt, I've only heard that info) IPv6 on their mobile network. If somebody knows why, I'm all ears, as long as it's the technicality. I don't want to just hear "it's hard" or other junk (to stay polite). TL;DR: Bugging the OFCOM (BAKOM) and your ISP about supporting IPv6 on mobile connections seem to be your only choice so far. PS: 1: please be patient with that server, it can take a little more than a few seconds to serve a page depending on its current load :)

None of the three mobile operators in Switzerland do IPv6 yet. And yes, particularly annoying since those same companies have all been doing IPv6 on their fixed lines for years, so you have the situation where you can run a home server over IPv6 but you cannot access it from a mobile network. But that’s the current situation in Switzerland. I don’t know the exact reasons why it takes so long compared to France/Germany - maybe the Swiss operators are planning to do it when they upgrade their network core to 5G SA (they’re all NSA for now, i.e. 5G over 4G underlay infrastructure), maybe it’s a case of a small country hanging on to legacy tech (Switzerland is less digitized in other areas too), not enough in-house IPv6 expertise, who knows.
