IPv6 in Ireland

I saw from https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Broadband/IPV6-not-available-via-SKY-Hub-gigabit-fiber/m-p/4440212#M358... that IPv6 was due to be supported in "early 2024". Does anyone know of the current status of this? I have a VPN that I really only use as an IPv6 tunnel that I'd like to get rid of.

Re: IPv6 in Ireland

I was chatting to SKY today on the phone and agent told me they had not heard of any plans to introduce it. In a seperate private message with a SKY employee earlier this year I was told its actualy the "last mile provider" who is responsible for enabling IPV6, so safe to say nobody seems to know whats going on ....

Re: IPv6 in Ireland

Thanks, that's good to know. I rebooted my modem/router just now and still only got an IPv4 address, but I'd guess that's because they're migrating exchanges a few at a time.
