I’ll say it again for those who didn’t get it the first time: IPv4 won’t disappear overnight. We have YEARS until we need to start worrying about IPv6. ISPs are doing all they can to avoid migrating to IPv6, even resorting to cascading NATs.Good news to know the doomsday will not come here suddenly. Just hope we have new stuff to play with.

By then we’ll be running LS’s GE or our Russian friends’ new engine.
So stop fretting, and have a juicy carrot or three.

prolly it is a good idea already as our clients are more and more switching to the “new generation” systems and encounter the IPv problem and stop playing FL before they even try to figure how to work around the incompatibility issue. would be nice to know this hack soon enough, don’t ya think so?

IPV4 will vanish once it becomes to expensive and when IPV6 will have some cash making bennefits.
No ISP is willing to invest a great amount of cash for basicly doing the same thing, especialy if IPV4 is still cheap and way to easy to maintain.ISP’s will have to do a lot, like replacing routers with customers, in their own internal network. And also make sure their customers know what they are up against.
And right now only a handfull of ISP’s have updated their networks or are in the process of updating them. -

Especially we can Using IPv4-compatible addresses to compatible old device.

Most ISPs use old hardware which does not have any available update to support IPv6, so a software upgrade becomes a costly hardware upgrade.
