Cheers -

I noticed that the IPv6 AAAA record for weewx.com isn't reachable at the moment. IPv4 works fine ... (both 80 & 443 don't appear to work)

https://ready.chair6.net/?url=weewx.com

Why does this matter? Well, for me, it was running apt commands, running into some issues, then re-running the directions from https://weewx.com/apt/ - specifically getting the gpg key pulled down ... wget will try IPv6 if it's on a system w/ IPv6 and it finds a AAAA record.

Thanks vince! My intent here was to report this problem so whoever is responsible for the site can take a look :)

Try it now. Recently we changed servers on AWS. While I reused the static IPv4 address, it seems to have changed the IPv6 address. I've updated the AAAA record to reflect the new address.
