IPV6 Available on PN?

Good evening all.

Why not get in touch with BT and ask them how did ther do it ......


I bet any money When old System Run out with IP Address v4 PN Will Deployed new System IPV6 when it's to late.
As of April 24th2026, I am now utilizing Sky Broadband, which offers full support for IPv6 addressing. Broadband Status page https://stats.uptimerobot.com/i06TwWNbhx

@DJMcKenzie87 

PN are working on it. Until now, cost has been a major consideration - it is not cheap to install and run as you also need to continue running IPV4 servers. Plus the need to integrate it with all PN systems.

 

They were hoping to have it up and running by the end of 2025 as per the following presentation but I believe the initial test (of one person) failed.
