(Not that you don't know this Mike, I just don't want the nice people following along with the list to get the wrong information about the ipv6 transition.)

Moving to IPv6 will also increase performance due to the removal of NAT. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP From: "Paul McCall" < pa...@pdmnet.net > To: af@afmug.com Sent: Tuesday, May 3, 2016 8:18:33 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] DSL Router Recommendations Seth, I think it is pick your battles when you can. Some of use run at 100% capacity in execution, and we have to carve out additional time to do whatever the "other" things are. And there are a LOT of those "other" things for growing companies. We all know it's important. But, if it is so easy, then when it's time to hit it head on as it will being impacting our functionality, we can "easily" take that time, at that time :) -----Original Message----- From: Af [mailto: af-boun...@afmug.com ] On Behalf Of Seth Mattinen Sent: Tuesday, May 03, 2016 12:55 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] DSL Router Recommendations On 5/2/16 11:18 PM, Mike Hammett wrote: > Everyone *SHOULD* be caring about IPv6. > Why people running ISPs refuse to or are resistant to learn about things directly related to the business they claim to be in baffles me. ~Seth
