Note that the checkbox for "Enable IPv6 configuration for this interface" was unchecked even the first time I edited the profile. I'm guessing that the code rewrites the configuration parameters when the (profile) "Edit" dialog is exited. well, I think you can turn on/off IPv6 in anaconda (the installer). Maybe you forgot to turn off IPv6. So this may be a bug of anaconda, not s-c-network (which fixed it) ok Harold, i'm sorry but this whole thing may have been a farce. i found out some time after creating this bug report that there was a severe problem with roadrunner's dns nameservers in the Raleigh, NC area. After switching to 4.2.2.4 and 4.2.2.5, the problem TOTALLY went away. it may have been that doing the ipv6 thing did really help some (i.e., that this was a dual problem of both an ipv6 issue AND the roadrunner dns's), or it may have been that the perceived improvement (after ipv6 changes) was really false. sorry for being so ambiguous, but i believe being truthful makes it easier for everyone. It's possible that they were more broken with giving back ipv6 response codes. That's happened with TWC in the past. |
