Basically we prefer address from interfaces that have a default route. This particular problem should now be solved. Please let me know if something is wrong. > For IPv6 it is different story. On the web page all the IPv6 are listed correctly, but measurements show "src_addr":"2a01:510:xxxx:4888::1" as well as the "Connection Address" does. While the Default Route it different interface with something like 2a01:510:d5:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx address. For measurements, address selection is done by the Linux kernel. As far as I can tell, what happens here is that the interface with a default route (pppoe-wan) doesn't have a global IPv6 address. So the kernel has no way to prefer one address over another. Philip
