   Hello Tommi,   
      
   Tuesday July 29 2025 22:27, I wrote to you:   
      
    TK>> But as I am currently in Kemij„rvi Camping, I connected to the   
    TK>> wifi here, and I got only ipv4 adress.   
      
    MV> As expected...  Tnx.   
      
   As a side note: My coax provider (Ziggo) had a service called "WiFi hotspots"   
   that allowed customers to use the WiFi network of other customers. To gain   
   access to that network one had to enable the service in one's own modem/rouer   
   so that others could make use of it. I found it usefull.   
      
   But.. that "guest network" was IPv4 only. They had plans to add IPv6 but it   
   never came to that. The system was switched of first of July. The use had   
   dropped, mainly because of the rise of inlimited access to G/5G networks. The   
   benefits of maintaining the WiFi hotspots no longer outweighed the cost and   
   effort and so it was discontinued they say.   
      
   One way to get rid of IPv4...   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
