Today I discovered what gigabit can do for me, so I want to buy a new 8-port wired "internet" firewall/router. Will I need to read the fine print to discover its IPV6 capability, or would I be safe to assume any major brand current model would competently support IPV6 now and for the foreseeable future?
Some of the newer models from D-Link and others support it. You'll have to read the specs.
I don't see how a switch to IPV6 could happen in the short term. It's really hard to find any reference to IPV6 in product searches. When I try combining IPV6 with either 8-port or gigabit I come up empty virtually every time. I did find a very few products, but at affordable pricing with only 4 wired LAN ports, and nothing with more than 4 at any price resembling affordable. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
