They don't care about any of these technical arguments, so allow me to put this in language they will understand: ![]() ![]() This would help explain why most banks are not enabling IPv6 on their public facing services. The Steam Store is likely subject to fraud monitoring. But unfortunately, enabling IPv6 in servers can be extremely problematic for businesses which are subject to fraud, because the fraud detection and monitoring software will have to be able to understand IPv6 addresses and analyse them for patterns. Although I would really urge them to make their servers IPv6 only. ![]() Valve just needs to update their code to solve these things, and then it will happily work behind a NAT64 gateway, and then Valve can make their servers IPv6 in their own time. IPv6 will automatically work in software which is designed well, with no thought from the developers. It is not about implementing IPv6 (aside from in protocols that embed IP literals). What do you mean by "compatibility mode"? Most software should just work, it's because Steam half implements IPv6 and that implementation is broken that we get this bug. The issue is Steam doesn't work in compatibility mode.
