Nice. New love for D-Link then. I've had DSL modem vendors sending me
their IPv6 stuff. It's been horrid. Luckily, most of my network is
bridged and it's only what the customer buys that is a problem.

A bit pricey, but any good router usually is.

For $129 it's epic. And the scary part is it was released in 2009.


For god's sake, stay away from the DIR-825(Rev A), which has been effectively abandoned by DLINK support and has no IPv6 support at all. This has left a bad taste in my mouth. It has an entirely different processor in it. The RevB replaced the RevA over a year ago, but it's worth checking.

Unfortunately, my Rev B was blown up by lightning. Dunno if it is being supported by DLINK any better.
