aLmAnZo: My experience with IPv6 is quite limited, so if anyone would care to explain how it works, feel free. I am quite familiar with regular old ipv4, but that is about it.
neumi5694: Well, just the basics: It basically avoids the problem of a limited adress range. There are way more devices in the world than there are possible adresses in IPv4. To solve that, ports are used to send a response to a specific client. Your internet router must have something to decide if the incoming data is supposed to go to your smartphone or your PC.
IPv6 offers a much wider adress range and allows direct communication without additional ports (your computer and your smartphone both connected to your router will have different IPv6 adresses - if supported).
Galaxy does not require IPv6.
Thank you. It was how I thought it was then, the thing with IPv4 is that I can check my local adress, I know how DNS and DHCP work and so on and can configure it within my needs. But the backbone of IPv6? I don't even know to check my local adress, or how it even works. I know how to enable and disable it, that is about it.
Turns out ipv6 wasn't the issue, but I am still trying to figure this out. I had an idea to try a VPN, but I don't really want to bother with paying for a VPN just to rule out local server issues.
Thanks again for your reply though =)
