Hi,
Everyone has seen to news about ipv4 exhaustion. I was thinking about
switching ISP's to go from DSL to cable for b/w, 5 mb/s sucks. The main
downside is that I have a static ip on my dsl that I would like to keep. I
figure if I switch to ipv6, I will get a static ip for free... so... are
there any isp's in montreal, that re-sell cable, and support ipv6?
I've been told that teksavvy has started to do IPv6 on an experimental
basis, and I think they resell through cable in Quebec. They're worth a
call.
Be careful, though. You may still need ipv4 to access ipv4-only sites,
probably the majority of sites in the world right now.
Also you need to make sure that all of your equipment can handle ipv6. A
lot of home routers still don't, especially Linksys ones.
