Can someone from comcast  email please contact me off-list.  You all appear
to be black holing email received from $DAYJOBS domain.  Your support from
indicates we are not blocked.  Our logs indicate the mail is accepted for

Comcast DNS contact

Can some from Comcast DNS contact me off list. A colleague made a mistake
in one of our DNS zones and the incorrect data is cached on your end and
causing our users fits.

Thanks,

 Practically all broadband providers NAT their customers in the US.  If
 you look at the largest ones which are probably Comcast, Verizon, and
 ATT, you have the majority of US broadband subscribers right there.





Are you sure about that - I'm a comcast subscriber and see no signs

 Josh, maybe it is different in different markets.  When I had Comcast, I was 
 behind a NAT.



George,
Perhaps I misunderstood you - I am not behind any sort of large scale
NAT, however my CPE, self supplied router (actually an old sun blade
100 running openbsd) does provide nat for the other devices on my home
LAN.

 Focus on this part, BTW, folks; let's ignore the politics behind the
 shutdown.  :-)


 So if I get what you're saying, I could have something operational from 
 scratch in a few hours.  I've got a variety of Cisco routers and switches, 
 Linux and Mac OS X boxes in various shapes and sizes, and a five CPE + one AP 
 5 GHz Mikrotik RouterOS-based radio system, 802.11b/g wireless AP, 800' of 
 Cat 5e cable, connectors, and crimpers.  The radios, if well placed, could 
 allow me to connect up several strategic locations, or perhaps use them to 
 connect to other sources of Internet access, if available.  If it really came 
 down to it, I could probably gather enough satellite communications gear from 
 the office to allow me to stand up satellite Internet to someone.  Of course, 
 the trick would be to talk to that someone to coordinate connectivity over 
 the satellite which may be hard to do given the communications outage you 
 described.  I wouldn't be so worried about transmitting to the satellite, in 
 this case I'd just transmit without authorization, but someone needs to be 
 receiving my transmission and vice versa for this to be useful.  At a 
 minimum, I could enable communications between my neighbors.

 Regards,
 Ryan Wilkins


I agree that setting up local connectivity between the folks in my
neighborhood wouldn't be too much of a challenge.  Getting anything
much beyond that up and running would be a stretch.

 Yeah, but the more people communicating the better.  I don't know what all my 
 neighbors are capable of doing.  Some of them may be capable of helping the 
 cause in ways that I hadn't considered.

Ryan,
I agree the more people communicating the better.  I was just
commenting on what my own, and suspect many others on the list's
capabilities are.  While I would love to have access to a satellite
type of data service as a backup link its simply not in my budget and
even if it was I suspect any service available via satellite might
suffer from similar problems if the methods used to disrupt
connectivity in Egypt were employed here.

 There's clearly two things that need to be done:

 1) Major infrastructure (ie: backhaul, corporate, ISP gateway) need to be 
 upgraded/configured to support IPv6
 2) Edge networks need to start to hand out IPv6 addresses and name servers.  
 I think it would be great if providers started handing out IPv6 addressed 
 name servers when an IPv4 client does a dhcp renew, etc.



 Well, I'm doing my part by turning up native IPv6 at my parent's house
 this week or next. They are not technically inclined and I'm confident
 it won't be a problem. ;)

 Don't forget about OTARD, where so long as you control the space in your

While certainly not the best stuff made I've found the ubiquiti
