Good debate in the comments. What is the big deal? The backbones are ready, the router vendors are ready, your operating system is ready (well you might have to add a service pack to Windows XP) so all you are waiting for is your ISP and your home gatew

  • NAT is the wrong solution because of liability. NAT is wrong solution from routing point of view. NAT is wrong solution from technical point of view. IPv4 would have been replaced years ago if it wasn't or stupid NAT gateways everyone has now. Yeah, these will be obsolete with IPv6.
