Hello Joe,

On Tuesday May 13 2014 11:06, you wrote to me:

Then I fear you ran into the same problem as Markus. You probably have the older version of the DIR-655 with the hardware that does not support IPv6.

I do not know how you feel about this, but if it were to happen to me, I would be severely disappointed. Any chance of getting your money back?

So why did you by a new one in the first place?

That is what it looks like...


Cheers, Michiel
