If your home network stays IPv4 and your router will do the translations to IPv6 and mysqueezebox.com will keep an IPv4 address: no problem at all, if mysqueezebox.com will only have an IPv6 address in this scenario then that won't work any longer. If your home network also switches to IPv6, then your squeezeboxes won't work any longer. IPv6 is not backwards compatible with IPv4, an IPv4 address can be translated to an IPv6 address but most IPv6 addresses can't be translated to IPv4. -- servies There are 10 kinds of people in the world - those who understand binary and those who don't. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ servies's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9496 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=92260 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
