Really interesting how it spikes on weekends! I wonder if this is because more home broadband connections are ipv6-enabled compared to businesses?

- executesorder66 10y agoI guess it's hobbyists who's normal internet connection is ipv4, but on the weekend they have time to dick around with ipv6 devices and connections.
- mSparks 10y agopossible i guess do we see something similar with .onion addresses? ive found it much more reliable and secure to give devices i want access to from anywhere a .onion address rather than a ipv6 one. secure by design rather than plaintext insecure and only works on some internet connections occasionally by design nightmare that is ipv6.
- selectodude 10y agoComcast and Verizon Wireless rolled out IPv6 years ago, and resolves IPv6 addresses first by default. Nobody is dicking around, it's just transparent.
- executesorder66 10y agoHow does that explain the massive spikes on weekends?
- selectodude 10y agoPeople do more internet at home on weekends than they do on weekdays.
- liotier 10y ago> Nobody is dicking around Well, I am. Now let met enjoy my statistical insignificance !
- kiallmacinnes 10y agoYea, ISPs are upgrading home users for them.. Businesses tend to have their own equipment, and need to DIY the change, even if IPv6 is pushed down the wire to them by the ISP.
- boulos 10y agoYes, but mobile phones even more so (e.g., the push to IPv6 in iOS 9: https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=05042016a https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=05042016a)
