pfSense IPv6 Tunnel Problems
Got this figured out, I started my PC too early when the pfSense box was not yet ready which let to my PC not getting an IPv6-address (but it got an IPv4-address) which let to me thinking the tunnel isn't working, because I couldn't access any IPv6-pages. If I start the firewall (I turn it off when I'm not at my PC), let it boot and then turn on my PC, everything is working fine (layer 8, I know).
To answer your questions:
1) My servers have DRAC cards and I had the issue that they got new IP addresses nearly every time I connected them to my network, which was one of the reasons I build my pfSense box in the first place.
2) My ISP doesn't enable me to access IPv6 for whatever reason and I thought before getting no access to IPv6 (for testing purposes, too) I might as well build myself a solution with a tunnel. And speed-wise it doesn't matter, I get about 4.4/0.5 MBit/s over IPv4 and about 4.3/0.5 MBit/s via the tunnel.
