Re: [IPv6] Comcast IPv6 Gives Address But No Default Gateway

said by Mike Wolf:

This is definitely troubling.

I don't mean to hijack the thread but this has to be said.

I'd say this is all really awesome and positive for the Internet community. You have an ISP aggressively deploying IPv6 and pushing the CPE vendors.

Active community engagement and open dialog with power users to hammer out the bugs.

If every ISP acted like this, we wouldn't be sitting at 2% adoption in North America.

Can anyone imagine AT&T working one on one with individual residential or small business customers to get IPv6 working? Can anyone image AT&T even getting native IPv6 working for anyone other than a few select enterprise level customers?

There is a reason why I use 10 year old routers that have a snowball's chance in hell of ever being upgraded to support IPv6 to connect to my backup AT&T connection. Although, the Mayan Calendar that the TRENDnet router uses may force me to replace it after the upcoming Winter Solstice.
