If you fake the MAC address and the IPv4 address        TK> changes, how the hell the IPv6 prefix would not change...?              I can not change the MAC address for the IPv6 router...              That needs a bit of explaining. My ISP, Ziggo, only provides native IPv6 to       non bussines accounts with a very limited set of modem/routers. These       modem/routers do not allow changing the MAC address.              I can have the modem set in bridge mode and use my own router. Then I can       change the WAN MAC address. But with the modem/router in bridge mode, I only       have IP4.                     Cheers, Michiel              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: he.net certified sage (2:280/5555)       SEEN-BY: 15/2 19/10 123/1970 154/10 203/0 221/0 6 226/17 229/107 426       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 5006 5555 292/624 854       SEEN-BY: 310/31 317/3 322/757 342/200 393/68 423/120 460/58 633/280       SEEN-BY: 640/1384 712/848 770/1 2452/250 3828/7 5019/40 5020/545 1042       SEEN-BY: 5020/12000 5053/58       PATH: 280/5555 464 229/426           |
