This is why we wrote RFC8585, so users can freely buy their own router ... The ISP can also list some of the compatible models in case they are using "additional" features.

I really, really hate to force users to use my network edge router (I provide the ONT, though, and I provide an edge router that works and most users do take it), but it can be tough to ensure users have something that supports all the right modern features and can be configured via standard means. It would be nice if the consumer router industry could get its collective act together and at least come up with some easy-ish to understand feature support table that customers can match up with their service provider's list of needs. The status quo of a list of devices that work right (which is of course often staggeringly short if you're doing any of these modern transition mechanisms) that needs constant updating and may not be easily available is not ideal. Heck just having a real, complete list of supported features on the model support page on their website would be an improvement... -- Brandon Martin ********************************************** IPv4 is over Are you ready for the new Internet ? http://www.theipv6company.com The IPv6 Company This electronic message contains information which may be privileged or confidential.
