   Hi Micheil,

   I beleive it is due to hardware upgrade delays, ISP's like making money no   
   spending it until they have to.

   Thanks for the article, it is interesting and makes sense.   
      
    MVDV> As for switching off IPv4, I fear it will be around for a while....   
      
   I bought and installed a Netgate firewall / router running pfSense, probably   
   the best and most useful piece of hardware I bought in a long time. It is able   
   to do so much, configuring IPV6 should be a nice learning curve when my ISP   
   finally upgrades.   
      
   It has made a big difference in the amount of bad coonections from arouns 1000   
   to less than 10 a day on my system.
