It's at most half done, and it's probably confusing to read.
It might be a good idea to come back later.
Alternatively, you can prod me to write it.

Fighting School Networks

Just recently, I taught a course at a Deutsche SchülerAkademie and had access to and troubles with a school network.
I always knew they would be troublesome, but when I last had to live in one, I didn’t have both of needs and knowledge to do anything about it.
This time, I’ve encountered the following problems:
§ Websites connect only after a very long time
Reason: The network can disable IPv6 traffic (or just not speak it at all)
Apparently Windows still only uses IPv4, so they experience any issues.
Solution: You need to disable IPv6 either for the network, or on your device in general (if you’re one of the non-stupid clients)
