It worked in some later versions of 10.7, all versions of 10.8 and still works in 10.9. Given that 10.7 is fairly ancient at this point, I really don't think you have to be all that up to date to have it work. Given that 10.9 is a 100% free upgrade for anyone with a Mac and that nobody has reported any major problems with it that I know of, I would think that the number of people holding back from upgrading, especially if the need IPv6, would be relatively low. > >>> Nobody really cared with they limited what RFC1918 space you could use. >>> (not sure they're still doing that.) >> >> Not sure what you mean here since RFC-1918 is IPv4 only. > > Just providing an example of AT&T Uverse lunacy that hasn't resulted in > millions of customers leaving.

Actually I know several people that cancelled their UVerse subscriptions when ATT broke protocol 41. There are also some FCC complaints that have been lodged if what people are telling me is true.
