RE: CGNAT growing pains

It's pretty high, at least in the U.S.

https://stats.labs.apnic.net/ipv6/US

Support in consumer electronics (TVs, game consoles) is weak, but a lot of home gateways are fine. Netflix and YouTube 
stream over IPv6, and I think Amazon Prime Video also does, but of course only if you're streaming to an IPv6-capable 
device.

Definitely some laggards, but if you haven't looked in a while, you might be surprised.

Anyone know the penetration rate of IPV6 for home users (cable modem)? I know that some of the CPE doesn't even 
properly support IPV6 such as the stuff being handed out by RCN/Astound.

We just got our IPV6 allocation from ARIN and everything here is now dual stack. Was relatively painless.
