Re: Dynamic IPv6

said by zammyzam :

Comcast is testing IPv6 to a limited market right now, and they are only providing 1 IPv6 address to begin with (/128), and only allowing customers within that market if they are using a preferred OS(Win 7/OSX 10.7) attached directly to the cable modem(no routers).

Yes, they've made it pretty clear they'll be doing testing in multiple phases. The first phase is directly connected systems; as in no router. They have a preferred OS list because of the need for a DHCPv6 client and the listed OS's are the only OS's they "support" and which have DHCPv6 support. Any other OS with a DHCPv6 client not on the list would work fine as well. The second phase will be for users with a router and one or more systems behind it.
