&gt; <i>Just look at this page: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;IPv6_address" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;IPv6_address</a><p>&gt; By contrast, I can&#x27;t link you to the &quot;Wikipedia page on IPv4 addresses&quot;, because it doesn&#x27;t rate its own page. It just gets rolled into a single section on the IPv4 page in general: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;IPv4#Addressing" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;IPv4#Addressing</a> </i><p>The above neatly encapsulates my problem with IPv6.  I feel IPv6 would have much more widely adopted by now if people like myself—who have spent nominal time setting up small computer networks such as their home network—could more readily grok the deltas between v4 and v6.  With the reality of v6 being so dramatically different, I have on about three separate occasions sat down to try to understand what I need to do in order to have v6 on my home network and each time I just give up after a few hours of reading.<p>It&#x27;s just so much more complicated for the amateur network operators out there.<p>Additionally, it instills fear that if I turn on v6, I will inevitably have my home network in some tragically vulnerable state.
