Hi,

As you have already found, the date_time library is only requesting IPv4 addresses.

Would you be interested in opening a PR, so other users could benefit from this as well?

Best regards,

Didrik

I did these changes to make it work temporarily:

nrf/lib/date_time/Kconfig

config DATE_TIME_IPV6
	bool "Use IPv6"
	default n

nrf/lib/date_time/date_time.c

	hints.ai_family = AF_INET;    // REPLACED THIS WITH BELOW

	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DATE_TIME_IPV6)) {
		hints.ai_family = AF_INET6;
	} else {
		hints.ai_family = AF_INET;
	}

And then enabled that IPv6 for Date-Time library with CONFIG_DATE_TIME_IPV6=y in application.
