Comcast only gives you a /64.
That could be awkward for anyone who wants to run a separate LAN for wired and wireless. I hope it's only temporary. Cheers, Leo

Comcast (at least in my area) gives out up to a /60 to residential customers (if requested by the IA-PD option), although the default is /64. As I understand it, there was an issue earlier in the year (in one of their vendors software) that forced them to only offer a /64 for a time. I seem to recall that they stated two/three months ago that "most" areas now support /60 requests. I still think a /60 is too small for future home networking, and I hope to see at least a /56 at some point.
