IPV6 potentially Causing Frequent Account Locks
|
Hey,
so my provider (Comcast Xfinity) recently forced me to utilize external IPV6 as their system was trying to force me to utelize it and would faily for about 2 hours during witch time my internet was essentially useless.... this happened everyday and working from home this was not an option. So I setup IPV6 passthrough on my Asus router and that has resolved the daily issue. However since then quite often (some times 2-3 times a day other times every day or every couple days) POE will decide that I am logging in from a new location and require met to unlock my account. Not a big hassle but with it happening so frequently its begun to be a pain. After investigating my IPV4 address has not changed in the last 2 weeks but my IPV6 address has changed every time I notice this happen. Is there anything I can do about this? is it worth my time to try and contact comcast and get a static IPV6? is static IPV6 even a thing? Is it not this that is causing POE to lock and something else? thanks for help in advance! Last bumped on Apr 15, 2024, 8:45:24 AM
