If you have no IPv6, no problem, IPv4 is used.So you never see the problem.My problem was that I do have IPv6, but got it by getting a cheap (ie. slow) connection from a 2nd ISP. So yum uses IPv6 at 1Mbit instead of IPv4 at 20Mbit. Really slow updates until I shut down IPv6 during upgrades.

The Fedora machinery thinks IPv6 still works, but the packets never make it past the router Ever tried getting Netgear to replace the faulty product? Just wondering what their response would be... I do like the hardware (128 MByte Dram, 128 MByte Flash). That's the highest by far that I've been able to find in a cheap $80 router. It should allow for some pretty elaborate features. I was hoping that one of the open-source firmwares (dd-wrt, open-wrt, etc) would be available for it soon. As to getting the Netgear firmware fixed, I understand that the technical people behind the Comcast IPv6 setup are looking into the problem with Netgears. It spans the whole product line. Something goes wrong with the dhclient asking for a prefix delegation. The first one happens just fine but the renewal never happens. I suspect that Netgear is going to listen to Comcast with their millions of customers much more closely than little ol' me. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r28719812-IPv6-ipv6-stops-working-after-a-few-days -wolfgang -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

failed updates
Just tried to update my Fedora 19 with yum check-update. It seems every mirror has a problem: http://mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/fedora/linux/updates/19/i386/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno -1] repomd.xml does not match metalink for updates Trying other mirror. ftp://mirror.nexicom.net/pub/fedora/linux/updates/19/i386/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] curl#7 - Failed to connect to 2607:f1f0:1:3::2: Network is unreachable Trying other mirror. One of the configured repositories failed (Fedora 19 - i386 - Updates), and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work fix this: 1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem. 2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the packages for the previous distribution release still work). 3. Disable the repository, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage: yum-config-manager --disable updates 4. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable. Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands, so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice compromise: yum-config-manager --save --setopt=updates.skip_if_unavailable=true failure: repodata/repomd.xml from updates: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. http://fedora.mirror.nexicom.net/linux/updates/19/i386/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno -1] repomd.xml does not match metalink for updates Is this temporary or should I do what Yum suggests ?? -- Your mail is being read by tight-lipped NSA agents who fail to see the humor in Doctor Strangelove. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
