   Hello Jay,   
      
   On Saturday January 30 2021 20:20, you wrote to me:

   Of course. It was already ten years ago that I decided not to buy any new   
   network equipment that does not support IPv6.

   Oh...  Are you sure? I would be very surprised if your router does not have an   
   IPv6 firewall that is configurable to have servers in the netwok accept   
   incoming IPv6 calls.   
      
   But sometimes it is a bit difficult to find. Some route manufacturer put it om   
   the same page as the port forwarding for IPv4. Easy to find but calling it   
   port forwarding for IPv6 is technically incorrect. Some router manufaturers   
   put it somewhere else.   
      
   My router has a page marked "Port Forwarding". That is IPv4 only. There is   
   another page called "IP and Port filtering" That page has an IPv4 and and IPv6   
   section.   
      
   Oddly enough the IPv6 part is where I have to open an IPv6 port. Even more   
   confusing is that I can specify ingoing and outgoing addresses and ports. I   
   have not tried but it looks like I can actually do NAT on IPv6. It should   
   not.. Anyway this is where I open a port by marking it as "allow". Very   
   confusing.   
      
   What I am trying to say is that your router most likely has a way to open an   
   Iv6 port in the IPv6 firewall, but that it is hidden in the noise somewhere.   
   Does the manufacturer not offer support?   
      
      
   I see that you have removed the AAAA record from your listed hostname. So I   
   have marked you as "6DWN  in the list of IPv6 nodes. If you can still make   
   outgoing IPv6 calls, I could change that to "OO". Try polling my system, so we   
   can see...   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
