Odd. Because this only happens when I use the RELAY6 method when locally
accessing my website. When I used the netsh method, I always connected via
IPv6. And wneh connected other websites aroud the world, IPv6 is the preferred
method.

Check

Set to true here...

Hmmm...

Dynamic.

I don't know. They do not seem to know themselves either...
