Also if I do a ping6 or make a connection to a remote IPv6 host on the Internet it doesn't work, however if I ping6 the router from the network, everything works again...for about 30 seconds again, and then the problem begins again... I was told that this is caused by NAT/connection tracking. Is there *any* solution to this? This is really annoying as I *need* NAT, but also want to give IPv6 connectivity to other machines on the LAN. ----------------------------------------------------- Mail.be, WebMail and Virtual Office http://www.mail.be
