This works fine in ipv4.
Also some other ipv6 destinations work fine, for example here it is for my own server:

Hey Van, I think you're best suited to look at this :)

this appears to be an issue upstream, i've emailed our ISP for support.

This is also affecting the guest network :
[ludovic@saraan ~]$ traceroute6 google.com
traceroute to google.com (2a00:1450:4007:808::200e), 30 hops max, 80 byte packets

I will follow up with my team during US business hours.
Dear customer,
I am afraid that even my escalation contact will just state the same. I guess we could make some progress if you had the trace or show bgp x.x.x.x output, if you had connection to Google through Cogent before. So we could see who stopped sending it to us
But to put it briefly, we hold the routes that we customers and peers advertise to us and we cannot force them to advertise said resource. Also, I must be noted that this prefix is from Google who, aside of not having any peer with us, hold the ultimate right to decide where to propagate this prefixes.

spoke to :julienw before i left, looks like cogent is filtering google and they're steadfast about it. he understand this issue will be resolved when we get our 2nd ISP in the office.
:julienw, are you guys affected work-wise? and how many members in the office are impacted?

I was mostly affected in thunderbird. Now I'm not affected much because I disabled ipv6 there. Curiously I'm not affected in Firefox despite that I didn't disable ipv6 there...
And I just realized that I did disable ipv6 in the past on the WiFi connection itself, so maybe that's the reason.
Anyway nowadays I'm not impacted but that's a pretty drastic workaround I have :-)

Hi Julien.
An update on this. Each office the NetOps team builds should have two working WAN carrier circuits. Our second WAN carrier will be staged soon. This will bring back the IPV6 functionality you previously had. we will communicate of any changes that might occur.
the only caveat I would state upfront. Should our second WAN carrier be affected by an outage, it will impact this Google IPV6 service for the duration of such.
Thanks

Thanks for the update.
I'm still a bit concerned that we contracted with a WAN carrier that doesn't have this important functionality, especially that we're using Google for some of our company services.

we are totally with you. we have never ran into this situation before with a Global carrier. In our investigation of this issue, we have found that Cogent has engaged in this type of disputes more than any other Global WAN carrier. we are exploring our legal options. our second wan carrier will be arriving soon and this will be a non issue.
we will keep you posted

We brought up the Zayo link this evening. Can you re-test and see if this works now?

ok, your route is going out through Zayo... and not getting beyond that.
Looks like our IPv6 space isn't getting advertised beyond Zayo. I will go poke them about why they're not propagating it.

This should all be working as of a week or two ago, can you test again?
