    DD-WRT also supports IPv6 which gives you even more options.
    I'm using it now with my home computers. It causes my phone to lock up though when I try to connect via wifi. So I made a separate vlan with an ipv4 DCHP server for all my old, IPv4 devices. DD-WRT is just awesome!

    It's really just the last BLOCK that ICANN holds. ISP's have been stocking up for some time now, there's no immediate threat.


    That said, we must unfortunately begin to really think about IPv6. It's such a bad solution it's not even funny, being riddled with inherent security flaws despite attempts to be far more secure than IPv4, but I suppose it's the best the committee was able to come up with. That's why the current best practice for companies is still to not even touch IPv6 until you absolutely must... everyone's hoping a lot of the issues get shored up somehow.


    The good news for us network consultants: tons of work in the future for network transitions.
