People still buy their own routers?
Why? Just do it for the customer. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: "AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, December 13, 2021 3:51:07 PM Subject: [AFMUG] IPv6 in home routers I was doing some testing on our dual stack FTTX network. I grabbed a CnPilot R201P off the shelf. IPv6 was disabled by default. You had to enable it in 3 different places and even after following the guides on Cambium’s site the prefix delegation seems to not really work. I grabbed an AirCube…..no IPv6 support at all. It’s supported in the underlying OS, but not in the GUI. Ubiquiti support says it’s coming, but they’ve been saying that for 2 years +. I grabbed a Mikrotik…..works perfectly fine, but setup is beyond what any consumer is going to do. If I’m quibbling, it doesn’t support stateful dhcp assignments from a delegated prefix. That’s not too big of a deal. Out of 3 routers I have close at hand, 1 is a faulty implementation, 1 is not implemented at all, and one is too hard for normal people. So when people run out to the store and get a Netgear, Asus, or whatever router off the shelf is it hit-or-miss with those too? I guess I naively assumed that 25 years after IPv6 was created that we’d have working implementations by now. -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
