Interesting to see how apparently low deployment of IP v6 we have achieved in Sweden. I wonder why.

- forty 2y agoThere seem to be some correlation between large population size and higher deployment. Maybe there are too few internet connections to be really worth it.
- dijit 2y agoOh, I know why! A combination of “getting there first” (and thus, a bunch of decaying infra that doesnt support v6- and needing it all updated) and the “free-net” thing where you can choose your ISP in some apartments. For those not in the know: internet is usually negotiated by your entire apartment building, but some (especially the largest rental building association “MKB”) give you the choice to choose your provider. The way it actually works is complicated, but nobody will invest in this “open networks” system, so it is stuck in time fully, and even providers (like Bahnhof) who want to give v6: can’t with that system. It seems hard to find info on the open network stuff, I know it all from a friend working at Bahnhof, here’s at least part of it: - https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/5549139 https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/5549139 - https://www.stadsnatsportalen.se/pages/onapi https://www.stadsnatsportalen.se/pages/onapi (Swedish) - https://github.com/on-api/on-api https://github.com/on-api/on-api
