Likewise (I'm with the biggest/worst ISP in Australia). They really are being stupid about it. The problem (running out of IPv4 IP addresses) is not going to go way. The solution is IPv6, not NAT, nor 6to4 proxies. If they're waiting for something else, I don't see it happening. Oddly, when I first joined the NBN (the Networking Bloody Nightmare), I did have IPv6. Then some time afterwards, they switched it off. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.10-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 14 01:31:27 UTC 2013 x86_64 (always current details of the computer that I'm writing this email on) Boilerplate: All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I only get to see the messages posted to the mailing list.
