They are an early adopter and innovator of IPv6, partly because they had more modems in their private network than the number of all possible 10.x addresses.
- zAy0LfpBZLC8mAC 9y ago"Early adopter and innovator" because they started using a technology that was being used by other people for 10 to 15 years before that?!
- syncsynchalt 9y agoYes. As an inventor of CG transition technologies like DS-Lite (RFC 6333), Comcast has really led in building the technologies that were needed for transition in the past decade. I was on 6bone too, but there's a lot of difference between ping6'ing each other over tunnels and rolling out v6 to millions of customers without them noticing.
- zAy0LfpBZLC8mAC 9y agoI dunno ... I had native IPv6 on DSL ~ 12 years ago. I mean, sure, they have actually developed technology in that area, so maybe innovator is somewhat appropriate, but early adopter?
