First off, 192.168.1.* is a Class C address. Class D is Multicast addresses.
Second, IPv6 is 128-bit binary displayed as a Hexadecimal number.
The big problem with IPv6 is that almost all home routers do not know what IPv6 is. Custom firmwares like DD-WRT will allow some of them to use v6, but none of the standard firmware with the exception of a couple of Netgear's products.
To me this seems really odd. All of the major operating systems have had some form of support since y2k. And the Core of the internet has been ready for just about as long. The ISPs and home router manufacturers need to step up their game now and that is what IPv6 day is all about. The need to go to IPv6 over ISP level NAT.
