As an ISP customer, would you really accept not

Hi Owen,

I wouldn't, but outside of the folks I know in this forum, few would
notice or care. So long as the ISP has an alternative available for
those who do care (such as an existing static IP request mechanism)
CGNs are low-risk from a customer-acceptance position.


Sure, but I didn’t ask the question of the general public… I asked it of the people on this list.

I suspect most of the membership of this list would opt out of CGN one way or another.

In my case, my provider is IPv6 capable and I’d simply move my tunnels from IPv4 to IPv6 rather than subject myself to 
CGN if necessary.
