Is anyone else experiencing problems with TCP/IPv6

I've noticed a few limited connectivity queries and such, but I've had
random websites refusing to load which was solved by disabling TCP/IPv6.

I am assuming though, this would be because my router and/or rest of my
network isn't configured for this new Protocol.

Could anyone confirm this?

Hmm..

Well, ok.

Either way, occasionally Websites refuse to load and turning TCP/IPv6 off,
or on, fixes this temporarily anyhow.

As it is, due to this and an Nvidia graphics bug I've given up on RC1 =/

Just for background:

For most home/personal boxes, you get IPV6 connectivity by Teredo
tunnelling (on XP, this was referred to as the P2P Advanced Networking
Pack). This works independently of any external routers and
firewalls. Using this, you can access your computer from another
Vista machine (via Remote Desktop, Remote Assistance, IIS, etc)
without having to create forwarding rules in your router.
