Of course it won't solve the shortage for the next 15 years, but 5 years more with IPv4 would be realistic.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-OS-and-Routers-20977080 Tue, 19 Aug 2008 22:56:06 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-OS-and-Routers-20969289 said by Matt:

I don't need it on my home network. Once my provider supports it I'll happily turn it on and run it. Right now it's unnecessary overhead.
Actually nobody needs it on their home network behind a NAT box, the problem is internet and ISP adoption, that's where the address shortages will be.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-OS-and-Routers-20969289 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 14:53:48 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-OS-and-Routers-20968046 said by Iceman4u2:

That is your basis cause Vista said so????? It supports IP6, but it does not hand out IP6 address by default, as you stated. Yes you are right about the management address I did forget the 1 in front of the 0. Vista did that when I added my content media server to my home network as well, but it just means a IP6 capable device.
I apologize for my poor choice of words. It's sending out IPv6 routing advertisements, but it does not have a built-in DHCPv6 server.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-OS-and-Routers-20968046 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 11:00:42 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-OS-and-Routers-20967994 said by aelfwyne:

And your desire to "turn it off" is indicative of the overall problem - people see IPV6 as something they don't want, god knows why. My router supports it, unfortunately my cablemodem does not.

You'd think the RIAA and MPAA would be paying off ISP's to push IPV6, as it would make linking user & machine a bit easier.

Dude are you sure.....I do ALOT of device testing for work and played with that router a month ago. I did not see it did that, considering the management address out the box is 192.168.0.1. By doing that I mean handing out IP6 addresses by default.
The Mgmt Address out of the box is 10.1, not 0.1.

And yes, I'm pretty sure. Vista popped up a notification saying "New IPv6 device detected" when I replaced my old Buffalo with this one.

The TEW-633GR employs a VSC7385 Gigabit Ethernet switch made by VITESSE. This SparX series chip is recommended for use in high-performance SOHO solutions. The chip offers 5 ports, has a 112KB frame buffer, supports IPv4 and IPv6 networks (with Jumbo Frames and features integrated tools for QoS and other services.)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-OS-and-Routers-20967599 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 09:31:38 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-OS-and-Routers-20967507 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-OS-and-Routers-20967507 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 09:05:10 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-OS-and-Routers-20967489
In a local network with a consumer-level router, having IPv6 is likely to slow down the whole network, since IPv6 needs to be transleted back to standard, IPv4 networks, since the vast majority of ISPs still don't support it.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-OS-and-Routers-20967489 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 08:56:56 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/OS-and-Routers-20967471 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/OS-and-Routers-20967471 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 08:49:49 EDT
