Both of mine have LL addresses, but maybe Android behaviour is a bit off-topic here.
The conversation has drifted a bit, as usual :-)
I commented when James said that he had been on IPv6 for over 12.5 years that IPv6 is not progressing any more, that «A lot of the world lives on IPv4 and has no plan to upgrade to IPv6.
Yeah, I saw that, I'm just not sure you're right. We _have_ run out of IPv4 addresses, anyone with a spare range can make a very decent profit. I think in particular the developing world (Africa, Asia) is seeing a lot of IPv6 deployment, but also in Europe - yesterday, 52% of all German mirror traffic to my mirror were IPv6. 43% of all French. 40% of all Belgian. Otoh, only 4% of Italian and 6.8% of Spanish traffic.
What ISPs are doing is switching to Carrier Grade NAT. Problem solved as far as they are concerned.»
Well, again, I don't think that is true, but I probably have no more data than you do, and as it's really off-topic, I refrained from commenting.
James said that the ISP provider must provide an IPv6 address when the use CGNAT, but mine doesn't.
You are presumably still looking at the Android example.
This is on interest because I use the phone to tether my laptop when needed, so my laptop gets a CGNAT address as well, not an IPv6.
Hmm, I don't think so. When you set up your phone as a hotspot, you usually configure a dhcp range, your laptop will just get a 192.168.1.x address, I expect. and most likely an LL too :-)
I have another machine on a GSM router on a lesser ISP, also on CGNAT. I have not used it in a month, but I fear it will not work at all because the 3G network is being decommissioned. Even my secondary phone, which is my previous mobile, does not get an IP at all
