Network routing issues - sigh

[Nik]

Our upstream internet provider is experiencing some ipv6 routing issues as of this morning. Without drowning you with detail this means you will not be able to login with Facebook or Google consistently (for those that use that feature) until this is resolved. This does not impact regular logins with email/password.

Keeping a close eye on the fix by our provider.

Thanks and apologies for the inconvenience.

Alright this impacts a bunch of providers, thanks Verizon... So I've taken ipv6 off the list of preferences and we're back in business for the time being. Issue resolved.

Hey Nik. Don't fret it. Most of those ipv6 routing issues were really common back in the late 60's for us old timers so we definitely won't be holding that against the forum....

Lol, my sentiments exactly. Appreciate the support through the decades

Thanks for the quick work Nik! Thank goodness it got stopped at ipv6 and didn't escalate to ipv7 or ipv8 problems!

Yeah.... you definitely don't want an ipv8 on your hands... we had one of those in our office and it routed a big hole right out through the side of the wall one night..... damn lucky no one was in the way...
