Does Odido (the old T-Mobile Netherlands) which took over Tweak Internet (they supported IPv6) already support IPv6?

Posted by jpluimers on 2026/01/12

I am writing this early 2025, shortly after Odido introduced “Klik & Klaar” for EUR 25/month: yet another of their internet products, this time over 5G, and yet again: no IPv6 support, just like their DSL and fiber products.

This post is a reminder to check if by now Odido has started supporting IPv6.

I know that at the time of writing, of the large Dutch mobile providers, only KPN supported IPv6, but both Vodafone and Odido didn’t. However, for Vodafone it is not a technical limitation: their bean counters need an upgrade to their billing system. The Odido back-haul technically isn’t ready for IPv6 at all.

Regrettably, The Netherlands has been behind on IPv6 adoption, which is a shame for a knowledge worker country. UK, Belgium, Germany, France, Greece, Hungary and even Russia are doing far better on IPv6 adoption:

Hopefully that has changed by now.

Edit 20261214: no, that has not changed, see a reaction at [WaybackFailed/ArchiveFailed] Odido verhoogt prijs van Klik&Klaar met 1 euro naar 26 euro per maand – Tweakers (which regrettably can neither be archived in the Wayback Machine nor Archive.is):

En Odido heeft ook nog eens geen IPv6. Anno 2026 loop je dan echt enorm achter.

Translated:

And Odido still does not support IPv6. Anno 2026, they are far behind.

Last week xs4all internet really has shut down and two long term “buddies” suddenly have a completely different life

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/09/04

For posterity these two tweets from xs4all unixbeheer dudes:

For me it is a strange feeling, but for Cor, Jan-Pieter and some others that also stayed until the very last it is even stranger: after so many years (or decades) at xs4all their life suddenly is very different.

I wish them well and hopefully be able to meet up every now and then.
