Dan,
 
DC>WD> IPv6 is already everywhere here.
 
DC> A bold statement.  I doubt it's "everywhere".
 
"Here" ... there are 2 network providers here, "Telenet" and "Proximus". They
both offer IPv6.
 
DC>WD> My ISP one day downed my line and called saying we are going to

DC>WD> installs new router and <ping> I've got both IPV4 and IPv6.
 
DC> And all FREE to you, right?
 
Correct. Up to that point I had used my own D-Link router which didn't handle
VDSL. After several mails, letters and calls I saw no need for the upgrade. The
available bandwith was enough. So they just downed the line and sent a
technician with a brand new router of their own ... didn't pay a cent for it.
 
DC> Oh, I forgot.... *EVERYTHING* is free in Euro-paradise, isn't it?
 
"Free" or "for free"? There's a difference.
