Maybe, maybe not :slight_smile:

On occasion, I have problems updating because I get IPv6 addresses from
the openSUSE redirector which I can not use.

That I do not know yet :slight_smile:

I just wanted to point out that it is not true, to my knowledge, that
«many ISPs support IPv6 nowadays». Not in my country, at least, I know
none using it for clients. In other countries the contrary may be true,
though.

That’s all. Not that the howto is valid or not.
