After reading this article in the telegraph today

About Vint Cerf saying that the Uk will run out of IP (V4) addresses by
2012, I wondered if my Router would support IPV6 on the Internet Side.
Will yours?
My Linksys WAG160 doesn't support it. You have to be careful about
predicting when ipv4 addresses will run out as CIDR has been so
successful, it could last another 10 years. I suspect if ipv6 was about
to be rolled out, all routers will have FW updates to support it.
