I mean on a technical level. Are the devices that make up the infrastructure of the internet hardwired with IPv4? Is the firmware on these devices impossible to upgrade remotely?

If it’s just a matter of software or firmware then adoption should only take like a year but clearly that isn’t the case. So what specifically is stopping us?

    Nothing, it has never been a technical problem it has always been a business problem. Why spend engineer time and money on deploying V6 when v4 is working perfectly fine and we are not approaching exhaustion of v4 space available for our customers.
