IPv6 support for Cox residential users?
From this Cox support page (my emphasis):
When will the Cox network be upgraded to IPv6?
Cox is working diligently to ensure all networks, systems, and products are fully IPv6-enabled in preparation for IPv4 address exhaustion. Cox began deployment of IPv6 on the Cox High Speed Optical backbone early in 2009 and is now in the process of enabling IPv6 throughout the remainder of the network.
Network upgrades in the markets have started and are expected to be completed by year end 2013. Residential customer trials are planned for 2013. Stay tuned for more announcements.
Thus, does Cox officially support IPv6 now?
thanks

Your correct in your quoting, but I have not heard of any residential customer trials yet. I have heard of some Cox Business accounts trying it out so its possible they might have isolated trials to them. Which makes sense considering then Cox can work with IT professionals and get better feedback. Also, since many Cox Business accounts use static IP's, I think they are feeling the pinch the hardest as IPv4 runs out. This is just a guess though.
