Slow WiFi with Android Marshmallow & IPv6?

[Brzozowski, John Jason]

As long as we have either DHCPv6 or RFC6106 we can make this work to enable
IPv6 only for devices like phones, etc.  Between DHCPv6 and RFC6106 we have
most devices covered.  A co-worker recently introduced me to the Linux
package for RDNSS.
