Re: [IPv6] Comcast Pulls Back On IPv6 Rollout Not to argue, but from that same article you linked to... quote: Some, such as Cisco's Linksys consumer routers, don't have IPv6 yet at all, although Cisco has promised to add IPv6 to its new routers by mid-2011.
And further, from a link in that article »www.networkworld.com/news/2011/0···pv6.html quote: It's hard to fathom why Cisco hasn't added IPv6 to its Linksys consumer routers yet, but the company has promised support will come this spring.
It's 2011, IPv4 addresses are officially exhausted, and the world's largest router maker, Cisco, still doesn't support IPv6 in its best-selling line of Linksys wireless routers. This is true even for the new E4200 router released just last month (priced at $180). The company has promised to have IPv6 support for the Linksys line by the spring but has not been specific.

| That's because like I said the IPv6 to IPv4 tunnelling option found in the original firmware was not officially recognized as an IPv6 function by Cisco and was turned off in the following firmware version and because it lacked the ability to use native IPv6 connectivity.
Official support for IPv6 was not brought to the E4200, E3200, and E2500 until September with the IPv6 Gold logo certification notation in its firmware release notes. |

Cisco has added IPv6 support for a number of its routers to include at least several of the Linksys E series, and the just released EA series routers have IPv6. I have the new Linksys EA4500 which has IPv6 (so do the EA3500 and EA2700). The E4200 v2 had IPv6 from the release...the E4200 has been out for over a year, and is one of the E series which has a firmware upgrade to IPv6. -- Deeds, not words |
