   Hello Richard,   
      
   On Tuesday November 17 2020 08:50, you wrote to me:   
      
    RM> But I know that DTAG has even a page, where you can trigger an IPv6   
    RM> network prefix change. But they also do it periodically.   
      
   Some Belgian providers also seem to change the IPv6 prefix periodically. The   
   policy of my provider (Ziggo) is unclear. It is not periodic anyway. Last time   
   it changed was when there was an unscheduled power failure. The power failure   
   lasted only two hours, but it was in the middle of the night and the power   
   adapter for my cable amplifier did not survive. I only noticed in the mornig   
   and so the cable modem had no signal for six hours.   
      
    RM> Some of their customers see it as a "privacy" feature.   
      
   I am not one of that "some". :-)   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
