Does anybody have any idea on when Verizon FiOS is turning up IPv6? (dual-stack)
Thank you in advance
looking at the archives is helpful in this question/answer process..
but to save you the digging: "When there's ice in the devil's house"
(essentially)
Yeah... although they seem to be releasing a new residential gateway that does IPV6 as
well as 802.11AC. Maybe this is a good sign ?

I already have IPv6 on my router at home. They rolled out an update a few
months back that added the capability for the latest 802.1N model. I'm not
at home to look at it but I'll update with the model this evening.

Like many others, I would be interested to hear more about this.
Verizon pushed a firmware update to my Fios router some time ago that supports IPv6, but I was not receiving native v6 connectivity from Verizon at home.
I think they did some small-scale deployments as a test, and maybe you're in one of the areas they rolled out, but I don't think there are any larger deployments on the immediate radar.
My calls to the front-line call center (I make a point of doing this every
few months) generally get no information. Offering to put a note in my
account stating that I asked about IPv6 is only useful if someone from
Verizon actually goes back and reads those notes. Shaking other trees at
Verizon through $dayjob has not produced any better results so far.
Until Verizon offers native IPv6, I will continue using my tunnel through HE, which has been rock-solid.

The actiontec I have from them, for years now, supports IPv6, they
just don't support it at the ONT or further upstream; no idea where
the limitation is. I don't use their router though, just get ethernet
from the ONT. We have Fios in a few remote offices; hitting them up
from the business side didn't make a difference either. They just
suck and I don't anticipate that changing.
You'd think they could hire some of the folks from the cellular side to
come fix the Fios network. IPv6 works great on the LTE net.
