RE: IPv6 enabled carriers?
Hmm, apologies - I was not explicit in calling out VZW; meant to, my bad and thanks for pointing it out! Posting from phone, while distracted . less than ideal. /TJ From: TJ [mailto:trejrco@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2010 17:52 To: Christopher Morrow Subject: Re: IPv6 enabled carriers? VZW's LTE HW spec's mandate IPv6 support, that's why it is relevant. Yes, VZW - thought I made that pretty clear in my post ... (cough)also not verizon residential(cough) Yes, there are other carriers - none of which appear to have the level of coverage I need in the areas I spend my time. Or the Droid ;). (Although a strong IPv6 rollout might convince me ...) /TJ On Mar 11, 2010 5:05 PM, "Christopher Morrow" <morrowc.lists@gmail.com> wrote: On Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 12:54 PM, TJ <trejrco@gmail.com> wrote:

how so exactly?? LTE is really just a 'last mile' tech... whether it's v4 or v6 doesnt' seem to matter (to the fact that it's LTE)
Another nit - They are also blocking Protocol41 on their EV-DO network.
<cough>vzw not vzb</cough>
While this is a 'noble, if poorly thought out, effort' to prevent IPv6 from impacting their cel...
there are other carriers ya know?

yup, the core point I was trying to make was that LTE is really just a vzw network change, and has basically nothing to do with 'verizon' networks (19262 or 70X). in the end though, I'm sure they'll put v6 on it (lte)... eventually :) -Chris

IPv6 is mandatory on all VZW LTE devices, all SMS functions on VZW LTE devices will be handled as IPv6. The device requirements are publicly available.
