Continued ICMPv6 checksum failed messages
[is] Shadow Hawkins on Monday, 29 April 2013 01:16:45
I am getting a lot of this messages in past few weeks. This is not due to configuration error on my part. This is also been creating the issue that youtube (using IPv6) thinks that I am on slow connection and not loading properly. Currently I am using 30/30Mbps fiber internet.

I am going to move my server from Gentoo Linux to FreeBSD 9.1-release. I do not know if that is going to change anything. But it is worth mentioning this system change. My current Linux kernel version.

Something on your link is causing messages to be broken, thus the checksum fails. As the PoP pings you once in a while it likely has a higher chance of being seen.
