Point is that even if you       MvdV> could get the Business Pro package without a commercial registration, it       MvdV> is still not just "paying extra for the fixed IP". You get a lot more,       MvdV> like support guaranteed within a certain time frame etc, end you pay for       MvdV> that. A lot...              Same here. Although how much of "a lot" it costs more depends on the        speed and other extras that you wish to have.       Basically a 50 MBit/s (downstream) / 10 MBit/s (upstream) is around       40 EUR/month for consumers and around 52 EUR/month for business        customers.              AN>> Okay, so it can happen that your IPv6 connection isn't reachable for       AN>> some time (via DNS). So it's good that IPv4 is still working :)              MvdV> Indeed, it occasionally happens that my IPv6 is down for a couple of       MvdV> hours or so.

I do maintenance       MvdV> once in a while and there the occasional power failure.              Same here. The IPv6 connection for my BBS also had problems on friday        because Dynv6 'forgot' the AAAA record that I've configured - but it        seems to be a known problem. Maybe I rewrite the update script (and        recreate the AAAA record on every prefix change) or switch to my own        dyndns solution...              And in the near future, my BBS will also be down due to a Synchronet        update...              MvdV> If I still had a business and it depended on my servers being 24/7 on       MvdV> line, I would take measures. As it is, I do not consider it an issue for       MvdV> a hobby system...              That's true, indeed.              Regards,       Anna              --- OpenXP 5.0.51        * Origin: Imzadi Box Point (2:240/5824.1)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 90/1 105/81 106/201 120/340 123/131 153/7715 226/30       SEEN-BY: 229/424 426 428 550 664 700 240/5138 5411 5824 5832 5853       SEEN-BY: 249/206 317 400 266/512 280/464 5555 282/1038 301/1 310/31       SEEN-BY: 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45 633/280 2452/250 2454/119       PATH: 240/5824 5832 229/426           |
