So charging end users based on what web sites and the like do is not incentive to the web site owners (well, not directly).RevKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369263214193333422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-34613396118411647242011-02-04T14:14:40.413+00:002011-02-04T14:14:40.413+00:00The NAT64 gateway is open to the world at present,...The NAT64 gateway is open to the world at present, yes. Something of an experiment and a damn good test for carrier grade processing of such things. Works well from what I can see.<br /><br />Going totally IPv6 single stack is still a tad geeky :-) and for now I would rather not confuse the "message" we are sending on this by even mentioning that you can do that.<br /><br />The message is dual stack for now.<br /><br />But well done, have fun...RevKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369263214193333422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-58409760044077459572011-02-04T14:14:28.814+00:002011-02-04T14:14:28.814+00:00Another possibility... convince ISPs to charge mor...Another possibility... convince ISPs to charge more for IPv4 traffic than IPv6.

Their exact words were, "All we know and the information we have from the HO is that we will implement IPv6 until the end of the year.". I'm not sure what that means, but I'm not holding my breath. :-)<br /><br />I've been testing an IPv6 connection at home via an he.net tunnel + the A+A DNS64 servers (which allow me to use your NAT64 - is this expected behaviour from outside?). It's pretty much flawless and sometimes better than the native IPv4 connection from my ISP!<br /><br />To be honest, now I've dumped XP I think I'd rather have a nice clean IPv6 only connection with DNS64/NAT64 than the hassle of dual stacking every machine (with the obvious exception of servers).<br /><br />JonathanUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13239342409334926885noreply@blogger.com
