The same reason so many “business server hosting” companies claim that a 5 year old unpatched version of PHP is “world class”.

I think it’s more laziness. If they were greedy they would charge for ipv6.

It could be equipment related?

I have municipal fiber and used to have ipv6 before they came out and swapped out my little modem for this fiber to ethernet converter box. Now I get no ipv6 anymore

I think all networking equipment built within the past twenty-five years has both IPv4 and IPv6 built-in.

just sayin, it could be a configuration issue… like in my case… im sure someone has to flip a bit somewhere but talking to T1 support is useless and i didn’t care enough to press the issue

There’s like 6 more bytes used for an IPv6 address, I think. Their server doesn’t have enough RAM to hold it all.

6? try 12. They’re going to have to spring for a Pentium 2.
