On the technical side, enterprises have been doing large-scale NAT for more than a decade now without any doomsday consequences. CGN is not different.
Well yeah, but everything is under control of the IT department to setup rules and forwards. That's not the same as a end user that wants a port forward to host a xbox 360 game on their fiber connection and can't set it up. I've tried getting the firewall disabled that denies "ALL" incoming traffic on my 3G stick and it's simply not possible, that is the sort of flexibility that the market is selling. Most of the ISPs I have personally and professionally worked with have the flexibility of a piece of mahogany. I'm pretty sure that some of the dedicated online game hosters are looking forward to this. Those investments should turn out great. Regards, Seth
