IPv6 is a basic function on any modern network device, wax206 should not be an exception. It will be good to have that anytime soon.

As crucial as it is for having more addresses (considering alone ipv4 only has 4 billion combinations). Ipv6 is directly advantageous for direct encrypted peer to peer communications without relying on a third party. This increases a persons ability to make connections directly on the internet to 4 billion per a single users devices, instead of the -1 just based on the world population. And mostly it provides means for ISP to not interfere with connections to alloted to devices over a gateway (even monitor the communications) for net neutrality.
As crazy as this is..
