If that        MvV>> modem/router supports IPv6, and all the new ones do, then the        MvV>> user has to go through some effort to switch it off.              French provider Free has removed the option to disable IPv6 in the last update       of their Freebox. Everyone Dual Stack, no exceptions. :)               TL> Probably depends on the router. I know in my case, I had to setup a        TL> router for a friend who's on the same ISP as me. The ISP supplied the        TL> router, but borked the admin password (they do let users configure        TL> their routers), and I remember having to explicitly turn on IPv6 after        TL> getting it working with the ISP. IOW, Joe Average doing the same        TL> operation would most likely end up running IPv4 only.              Bad. Hopefully they change their mind and correct it in the next update of the       router software?              Cheers, Michiel              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: he.net certified sage (2:280/5555)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/2 19/10 154/10 203/0 221/0 6 229/354 426 1014 240/5832       SEEN-BY: 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 5006 5555 292/854 310/31 317/3       SEEN-BY: 322/757 342/200 423/120 460/58 633/280 640/1384 712/848 770/1       SEEN-BY: 2452/250 5019/40 5020/545 1042 12000 5053/58       PATH: 280/5555 464 229/426           |
