I wasn't talking about switches and routers. I was talking about every single piece of software and equipment that they use for support and marketing and customer service and all the other stuff that big companies do. As I may have said once or twice, eventuallly it'll all be replaced so it works on IPv6 but we're not holding our breath. R's, John
