crashoften Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Like the subject says, I have an IPv6 only box that I'm using for some telco-type testing and it turns out I have to go to the IPv4 Internet to be able to d/l this badboy. What's up with that? Crash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crashoften Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Getting uTorrent via ipv6 is dependent on the hosting company for the uTorrent website and cdn.I agree to a point.i.e. a lookup on www.google.ca returns a v6 record first:Name: www.google.caAddresses: 2607:f8b0:400b:801::1017 74.125.226.55 74.125.226.63 74.125.226.56However, a lookup on www.utorrent.comName: bittorrent.vo.llnwd.netAddresses: 208.111.181.254 208.111.181.253Aliases: www.utorrent.comAlthough www.utorrent.com is aliased to limelight, there is still no v6 resolution. Limelight can certainly run v6, but www.utorrent.com doesn't have a quad-a record.In any case, I though it a bit odd that a product that supports v6 has a v4 only website.On another kind of related note, Windows 8 can't activate on a v6 only network - you have to phone it in. lolCheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
