Some ISPs already delegate IPv6 addresses when users connect to

automatically delegate IPv6 addresses to users who have IPv6

How do they do that? Statically routing a /48 or /64?

The only thing comcast 'does' is allow proto-41 to work. The thing those people are using is called 6to4, which is yet another tunneling mechanism and is nowhere near native IPv6.

Afaik Comcast uses DOCSIS modems and those babys don't do IPv6.

AFAIK, DOCSIS does layer 2 bridging, so it could work. Ever hopeful, I just now started up "rtsold" on the interface serviced by Comcast (Chicago), but alas, nothing answered the router solicitations.
