Every so often either my internet connection or my router hiccups, and my dhcp server on that machine much see a hiccup in the connection so it attempts to reconnect with another ipv6 address suffix.

So, until I notice or someone tells me it remains that way until I reset the network interface on that machine, or reboot it. Then it goes back to the normal MAC based one it usually has.

I mentioned this months ago, and it has probably only happened 2-3 times since then, so it's not a huge deal or anything.. but it is a minor annoyance that I don't really care to spend hours working on. :)

Regards,
Nick
