Comment on IPv4 is almost gone (in Europe anyway)parent

Comments

I'm running on IPv6 on Comcast in the US, and yes while I get access to the same web, I have noticed that I was having issues with IPv4 that I don't have on IPv6. Such as limits per IP/account tuple logged into certain servers.

So my iPad, iPhone, and MacBook Pro being logged into the same Google account over IMAP would sometimes cause issues because of too many connections for that specific account, now with IPv6 that isn't an issue because all of my devices now have their own unique IPv6 address. Perfect.
