Arghhh... I've spent half an hour today trying to debug a Vista PC not
using IPv6 preferred to IPv4... all IPv6 addresses it had were
deprecated, although the RAs from the CPE router indeed had proper
lifetimes. And yes, I played with the IPv6 uplink of the CPE before - so
actually ran into above problem too.

Microsoft, are you listening? Pretty pretty please fix that ASAP! :-)

Best regards,
Daniel
