Comment (by aggraef@…):

 Replying to [comment:12 cal@…]:
 > The IPv6 address you have is a local one, not a globally routed one, so
 you do not in fact have an IPv6 internet connection. You can try anyway
 using `curl -6`, but I assume it'll just tell you "no route to host".
 Similarly, you can force IPv4 using `curl -4`.

 You're right. My DSL router connects to the ISP via an IPv4 connection,
 but that's the same for all machines in my home network.

 > Both files download just fine at full speed for me. Do you happen to
 have some internet security/firewall/antivirus/etc. installed that might
 be filtering HTTP traffic?

 Nothing beyond what my DSL router does. That's just a plain Fritz!Box as
 you can probably find in every second home with an internet connection in
 Germany.

 > Maybe your network is forcing a transparent proxy onto you?

 Not in the home network. Maybe my ISP does? Is there a way I can detect
 this?

 But anyway, AFAICT all this should affect all the machines in my home
 network, and I only see these slowdowns on the Mac. So, unless there's a
 weird interaction between the Mac's network stack and my router, I don't
 see how this could have an impact.

 > Do you have a VPN/SSH tunnel or a similar method to try from outside
 your local network?

 Yeah, I could try using a VPN to our university network, but I still need
 to set that up on the Mac. And of course I can give it another try next
 time I'm in the office.
