#1 Does http://www.pcwintech.com/port_test.php support only IPv4 OR does it support IPv6 ( if a Public IPv6 Address was detected )?

#2 If it supports IPv6 too: A question related to my other post at http://forums.pcwintech.com/index.php/topic,2496.0.html

If your website is at the IPv6 Address of ( using the Firefox Add-on ShowIP Address, it appears to be 2607:f298:1:104::f32:f20e ), that is the IP Address that the port checker will come from?

Thanks.

The port tester only does IPv4 right now. When IPv6 is more main stream and finally going into peoples homes I will update the port tester.

The port tester is simply connecting to the IP address from the person connection to it. So once IPv6 is out for home users it shouldn't be a problem.
