    Big, fat and very slow. I know some network engineers working for BT and they would have brought BT up to date already if they were allowed to.

    to.

    Indeed, fat and slow. But they are not the only ones. All the big ones are dragging their feet on this. My ISP (Ziggo, now owned by Liberty Global) has /finally/ started to roll out IPv6 for new customers. They get DS-Lite with a TC7200 modem/router.

    They announced existing customers will get IPv6 "beginning 2016" but they will not say if those will get DS-Lite or Dual Stack :-(



    Cheers, Michiel
