IPv6? Nowhere to be found!

IPv6 has basically disappeared from the wireless router landscape. Try finding a current one < 100 euro. Except for some obscure releases, like the DIR-615 Wireless b/g/n Router but only the hardware revision C with firmware 3.01

Hard to find, and certainly online nearly impossible to get any assurance about the hardware revision level.

Oh wait, my good old loyal WRTG54 [V4 with plenty of RAM] to the rescue! Oh no, not now, with the current 2.6 kernel and the open source b43 broadcom chipset and it's issues. Only with kernel 2.4 and it's 'limited' IPv6 support. You can roll your own WRT54 dd-wrt, if you feel adventures but the drawback is that there is no way to use the GUI. Not a nice plan if you plan to send the devices to parts far far away from home to end users.

There is the Fritz!Box 7270 but that goes for about 200 euro. That is nearly Cisco level pricing. And only with a lab release of the firmware, that is RC in dialect in the rest of the software world. Cisco of course does support IPv6 too but using the word Cisco and a price tag of <100 is like demanding justice from a African dictator.

So is there no solution? Oddly enough, there is... and it is produced by Apple: the AirPort Extreme [ and the AirPort TimeCapsule but for a >100 price tag]. Unfortunately there are gazillion stability issues specially in combination with Apple MBP's but they do IPv6 well with a simple interface.

Frustrating.

Not too bad! Native IPv6 ADSL for 7 euroos a month.

And Fritz!Box 7270 is indeed the only commercial IPv6 enabled home grade device available, also used by XS4ALL

Most pathatic, hands down.

Of course picking on Microsoft has always been easy. Way too easy. So for me the laughing stock of this decenia has always been the inspired leader of Vodaphony and the AV bosses.

But MS has out done most of the attempts for gaining the top spot. Since absolutely no one wants or uses Vista, a low life MS marketing droid came up with the brilliant plan to show people Vista and not tell them it was Vista and record their happy feelings...Did not work, so plan B: get a well know dude to sell your stuff, that failed again.

That did not really work, so then they moved to the oldest trick in the book: if you can't beat them, copy them. So the market got a piece of MS interpretation of the fabulous "Hi I am a Mac, and I am a PC" commercials from Apple, but then done by Microsoft.

Now quess what? The stuff has been made on a ... MAC :D


Rock on loosers!

OS X it is coming to a computer near you!

Finally.

It took a year longer then I anticipated, but now my fellow computer-job-related friends are moving to Apple, or better: to OSX.

While I've been not first but quick anyway, I found that the OS needs some additional and FREE tools that are indispensable:

• graphic sftp client = Fugu
  
• quick keyboard access = QuickSilver
  
• better terminal == iTerm
• wlan sniffer == KisMac
• FireFox
  
• and a couple of widgets

With these installed I am happy for basic work. Then the fun starts!

• xcode
• nmap
• apache
• squid
• tor
  
• metasploit

And then some. Anyways, friends are moving over and of course it's the swiss that go first and fastest since the whole apple line is cheapest there, after the prices in the US.

All I was looking for...

...was a decent media center, a Home Theater pc, a Media PC, Online media center, a Media Portal.


And all I keep turning back to is the Apple TV
