   OK, your binkd version supports IPv6.   
      
    Mv>> If you type "ipconfig /all" at the command line, what do you see?

   A global IPv6 address. The first 64 bits is called the prefix. Assigned by the   
   ISP.   
   The lower 64 bits is called the host part.   
      
   Use this address for incoming calls.

    WD> fd7e:49ab:5d5c:0:4df3:890a:8ec1:7cc0(P eferred)   
      
   A so called Unique Local Address. Note tha the host part is the same as in the   
   global address. (Except for the last '0' which is probably a cut and paste   
   error.

    WD> 2a02:a03f:4a2f:c300:55aa:95e6:46e2:3b6 (Preferred)   
      
   Temporray address used for outging calls. Host part changes every 24 hours or   
   so.

    WD> fd7e:49ab:5d5c:0:55aa:95e6:46e2:3b60(P eferred)   
      
   Same for ULA.   
      
    WD>    Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . :   
    WD> fe80::4df3:890a:8ec1:7cc0%11(Preferred   
      
   Link local address. Only valid on the local link.  Again note the host part is   
   the same as in the ULA and the Global address.   
      
   So you have IPv6 on your router and on your Win 7 machine.   
      
   What happens iof you try to ping fido.vlist.eu? If you se an IPv4 address try   
   "ping -6 fido.vlist.eu"   
      
   Your IPv6 address is not pingable yet.   
      
   D:\FIDO\FMAIL>ping 2a02:a03f:4a2f:c300:4df3:890a:8ec1:7cc0   
      
   Ping wird ausgefhrt fr 2a02:a03f:4a2f:c300:4df3:890a:8ec1:7cc0 mit 32 Bytes

       Pakete: Gesendet = 4, Empfangen = 0, Verloren = 4 (100% Verlust),   
      
   Go to the setup of your router and look for a setting to enable ICMP or PING   
   for IPv6.   
      
    Mv>> if you surf to http://ipv6-test.com/ what do you see?
