Subject: Re: [DNG] IPv6 slow on one of my Linux hosts
I did not have the opportunity to use the onboard NIC for this
point-to-point test, but with the USB network adapter, I saw no
slowdowns on a point-to-point link, while I did when it was connected to
my greater home network.

I saw no sign in syslog of an address conflict.
