Well, the OP seems to be interested in campus wifi ... So perhaps we should stick to that first On the other thread, Randy said network operators use a lot of kinky knobs, thats just how it is. If these guys want to run without SLAAC, they can do that and know the outcome . It is just their kink. I dont think andoid will change, and even if they did you will need to wait 5 yeara for theupgrade cycle to push out old clients CB
