we did.

just that we cannot go to:

- google
- facebook
- youtube
- twitter

with it, despite the fact that all of them have demonstrated to have a 
working set up more than 9 months ago.

jeez people, it took us less time to migrate everything from ax.25 with 
bpq over ethernet to ipv4 back in the packet radio days than it's taking 
these people to "turn on" something they already have...

as for cable and xdsl providers, they have no excuse at all, just put the 
stuff into -briding mode- with autoconfig for all i care and ditch the 
crappy pppoe/pppoa if that doesn't "work" on the CPE and you don't feel 
like shipping new ones or kicking your vendor in the butt and force them 
to make a firmware upgrade for 10 year old adsl modems. (even with 10 year 
old ones, there is no excuse for a 20 year old protocol not to be 
supported ;)
