As always, I learn something from your messages.

So very interesting.  I have IPv6 working nicely now on my devices including my 
iPhone but of course, my carrier does not support V6 so once I leave my WiFi 
range it’s v4 for me.:(  (unless I 6 to 4 tunnel to my phone but that seems 
like I’m doing someone else work for them)

We at Verizon had V6 in place but that’s outside the scope of this message.:)


I did not know that NAT timers were the factor here and the active sync used 
the cell service.

More to think about.

I’m trying some other open source tools.  I have my mail and all that side 
working great but damned if I can get my calendars and contacts to sync across 
devices.  Same device no problem but sync, not happening.
