Hello Rob,

Winfred informed us that you can make outgoing IPv6 connections.

For your information:

To get rid of the privacy extension, the temp adresses used for outgoing that change every day: From a command window with administrator rights:

netsh int ipv6 set privacy disabled

To create a fixed address:

netsh int ipv6 add address Internet 2600:6c88:8c40:5b:f1do:1:103:705

Disclaimer: the syntax of netsh may be slightly different on newer Windows versions.


For incoming you should create a pinhole for port 24554 and maybe port 23.

If possible create a pinhole for address :: that is the unspicified address. Then port 24554 will be passed for all adresses on the LAN. No need to change it if you get a second node or if the address changes. If not supported use the applicable address.


Cheers, Michiel
