Good luck. We've been bitching at our sales rep for years, as we've =
added circuits, and haven't gotten even empty promises; just the same =
endless Verizon BS about "it's being tested in select markets" although =
no one has ever been able to prove that to be the case. You definitely =
get static IP's on business connections; that's just a matter of how =
much you pay and how many you need.

Subject: Verizon FIOS IPv6?
My strategy, should I remember it tomorrow:
We have a business-class FIOS=A0connection where I work and a static =
IP=A0as well. At least three people who work here have FIOS=A0at home. =
I've read rumors about business class customers who really work their =
phone sex getting native ipv6, and I also heard somethin about static =
ip's. So I'll try that, and also mention that "we're transitioning our =
employees who remote in from home to FIOS but we'd like ipv6=A0for =
...=A0VPN purposes, NAT traversal, etc ..." I mean, that should get them =
a little wet right?
I have a bit of a hairbrained theory that the reason ISP's=A0have =
stagnated on ipv6 has to do with relationship between capitalism and =
scarcity. Having a limited quantity of anything makes it more valuable. =
Why wouldn't that apply to IP's?
