Gentlemen
"...there's only so much that can be done. "
As I said this is where it's the ISPs problem and the major amount of public people have no need or care about this.
"The big problem with IPv6 is that almost all home routers do not know what IPv6 is. "
Your actually wrong on that. The firs router I ever bought that was capable od ipv6 to ipv4 conversion was in 2005, pardon me if i don't remember the number of that one, but everything i've had since has been capable of doing it without DD-WRT. (The ones i can remember wtr300n, wrt330n, wrt600n, wrt610, e3000, e4200) and everyone one with base software was able to convert. So you are wrong on saying most home routers can't.
""There's no place like 127.0.0.1" and the other says, "There's no place like ::1""
Yeah yeah, there's no place like home. No need to google that, it's as bad as a shirt that says "ack syn ack ack ack"
"IPv4 is stupid and should go away as soon as possible. "
I don't believe IPv4 will ever go away, it's too easy to support, esp if your trying to help with internal networks.
"excuse me sir what is your IP address?"
Now as to your comment about NAT breaking things I will take it with a grain of salt because i have no practical experience with it.
