Here the DSL providers issue static addresses. The cable providers issue dynamic addresses. But they are quasy static. My IPv4 address is linked to the MAC address of my router. If the MAC address changes, the IPv4 address changes. If I change the MAC address back before the lease expires, I get back the old address. IPv6 is still unchartered territory. Couple of month ago we had an unscheduled power outage. When the power came back on, my IPv4 address had not changed. But I got a different IPv6 prefix. Both have been stable since then.

Coming to think of it, ... that legacy allocation 44.0.0.0/8 reserved for HAM radio is a mixed blessing. It gives the HAMs plenty of IPv4 address space. More than they will ever need. A /28 for every HAM. Active or not. A luxury. But... it also makes them lazy. In Dutch we call this "remmende voorsprong". The success of the French Minitel was a main reason why Fidonet never really got off the ground in France. The same mechanism is slowing down IPv6 penetration in the HAM world. :-(

TL> Yeah you guys should be leading the world.
Watch your words. We the Dutch are not "you guys" in Belgium. That's just as bad as calling a Kiwi an Aussie. ;-)

Net 280 is also well covered. 12 systems, 5 of which (including the host) are IPv6 capable. 42% IPv6 penetration. ;-)
MvV>> Frustrating indeed. :-(
TL> Yep, this is not new stuff now, it should be pedestrian.
