Title: BT and IPv6
Post by: Mike Turner on June 13, 2015, 04:23:11 PM

I had a PPPoE reconnect the other night, and, lo and behold, my BT line now supports IPv6.

I've not seen this mentioned elsewhere. Is this another advantage of living in Martlesham Heath?

Quite possibly!

ironic one of the reasons I ditched bt for plusnet was ipv6 and BT roll it out first :)

But I do have ipv6 anyway since I am on the plusnet trial :)

I seem to recall seeing something about IPv6 on one of the roadmaps, but I think it was last year when I was searching for DLM stuff, so I didnt pay much attention..  and I cant find it now.

I did however find this:
BT to Enable IPv6 for Broadband Users in 2015 (http://www.ipv6consultancy.com/ipv6blog/?p=94)
