Just got off the phone with a very large ISP after a failed attempt to get
an IPv6 address.

Turns out that I can have IPv6 but only dynamic and only if I am on dynamic
IPv4. I cannot get IPv6 for my service with static IPv4 addresses.

Seems to me that we are still a long way away from being able to shutter
IPv4 completely.

What I have not yet tried but should is trying to use the IPv6 mapping of
my IPv4 addresses.
