That may well be the holdup here,  I already have a static IPv4 address and all I'm waiting for is for AT&T to assign and activate a static IPv6 address to my system.

At one time I had a dynamic IPv4 address and had to use the Updater to keep track of address changes, else I'd have had to find a way to stay alert at the con 24/7.  My dynamic address seemed to change every few hours and then it whould go for several days as the same.
