My cable modem uses IPv6 and so does my LAN. I want to connect my laptop to the hamachi service. However, the laptop tries to connect via IPv4 and this attempt fails.

The network configuration of my laptop looks like this

wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1e:64:47:00:cc inet addr:192.168.0.13 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::21e:64ff:fe47:cc/64 Scope:Link inet6 addr: 2a02:908:f621:8500:21e:64ff:fe47:cc/64 Scope:Global inet6 addr: 2a02:908:f621:8500:5c4e:d721:be73:ffb3/64 Scope:Global UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:616810 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:291628 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:919920604 (919.9 MB) TX bytes:32471751 (32.4 MB)
ham0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 7a:79:19:5b:cc:3c inet addr:25.91.204.60 Bcast:25.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: 2620:9b::195b:cc3c/96 Scope:Global inet6 addr: fe80::7879:19ff:fe5b:cc3c/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1404 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:113 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:500 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:22370 (22.3 KB)

and according to the config file IPv6 is enabled

$ cat /var/lib/logmein-hamachi/h2-engine.ini

However, the service is resolved to a IPv4 address and connection to this address takes very long and then fails (probably because IPv4 is used):

01.11 12:21:39.157 sys: go_online, reconnect 1
01.11 12:21:39.157 ses: selected (h-app03-03.hamachi.cc, 5805)

01.11 12:23:47.193 ses: reconnect delay: 389 sec

I already tried sudo hamachi set-ip-mode ipv6 but this does not change the fact that IPv4 is used.

Is there any way to make Hamachi work over IPv6? Any help would be appreciated!

PS: I use the latest version of hamachi: 2.1.0.119
