Folks,

The thread below was sent to me a few times, apologies for not catching it 
sooner.

Janet,

I sent you mail unicast with a request for some information.  I am happy to 
help you out.

For the larger NANOG audience, Comcast has recently launched IPv6 support for 
our BCI products, these are our DOCSIS based commercial offerings.  This means 
that if you gateway device is in fact in RG mode you will be delegated a 
dynamic IPv6 prefix, by default customers are delegated a /56 prefix along with 
a single IPv6 address that is assigned to the WAN of the gateway device.  IPv6 
support applies to the following makes and models:

SMC D3G CCR (http://mydeviceinfo.comcast.net/device.php?devid=216)
Cisco BWG (http://mydeviceinfo.comcast.net/device.php?devid=347)
Netgear CG3000D (http://mydeviceinfo.comcast.net/device.php?devid=347)

For customers where you bring your own cable modem or have one of the above in 
bridge mode we have enabled IPv6 support for you as well.  However, your router 
behind the modem must be running software and configured with IPv6 support.  
Specifically, your router needs to be support stateful DHCPv6 for IPv6 address 
and prefix acquisition.  We have received a number of reports from customers 
that the Juniper SRX does not appear to properly support IPv6.  We are working 
with Juniper and also recommend that you reach out to Juniper as well.

Please keep checking http://www.comcast6.net for updates, we will post some 
additional information here in the next week or so.  In the mean time if you 
have questions feel free to send me mail or post them here on the NANOG list.

HTH,

John

I hate to use NANOG for this, but support has now ended a chat with me twice 
without fixing anything, they just kicked me off.

I'm not getting an IPv6 address on the Comcast provided cable modem/router.  
I'm not getting a PD.  My machines thus have no IPv6.  I've hard reset my 
router 4 times while working with Comcast, and I've been told to do things like 
switch to a static IPv4 address, which shows a level of clue that is scary.  
And before that they were convinced it was a wireless problem even though I 
have a wired connection, and told them that multiple times.  I've wasted two 
hours with Comcast today, and even when I asked for escalation I got nothing.  
Just hung up on.  It's honestly the worst customer support I've ever received.  
I don't think I ever got them to understand the difference between IPv4 and 
IPv6.
