Hello Andrew,

Rumour has it that Ziggo disables IPv6 in bridge mode. At least for now.

THAT Wifi would not be an issue for me either. I have several alternatives to provide a WiFi access in my own home.

The Ziggo modems however do not just provide a private WiFi network, they also have a guest network, available to all the other Ziggo customers. On the condition that they enable the guest network in their own router. With the router in bridge mode, one can not open the guest network for others. And so one does not enjoy access to the gust network of the other customers. It is a bit like FON.


Cheers, Michiel
