Perfect Wes! Thanks a lot.

Btw, does this mean that sometime that I just don't remember that I must
have used control panel to add IPv6 and just don't remember it? Or is there
something else that I might have been doing that brought IPv6 along with it?

Just curious since I don't remember adding it recently...
