At the time and during a prior service disruption reference was made to the conversion of the internet to IpV6 from IpV4. All of your equipment in your house and existing equipment is IpV4 when you connect to the "Internet" it uses the new IpV6 protocol. There were some problems with the conversions of our internet address requests (IpV4) to the servers to convert to the new IpV6. Not sure if CL is having the same or similar problems that Comcast was having.

I will defer to others on this site with a lot more experience in this area, I know just enough to be dangerous.........
The IpV4 and IpV6 protocols can be listened on simultaneously. However any REALLY old equipment that does not support IpV6 would have a problem.
