If your equipment is all IPv6-capable, you may just need to have swap out your modem. Time Warner Cable has achieved 100% IPv6 availability (possibly excluding certain phone customers):

.. except no static ipv6 even for commercial / business class users? wt---

What's the point? The addresses TWC assigns are extremely stable in my experience. Are you trying to run a public-facing DNS server or do you have some other need to hard-code IP addresses?

Well, DNS needs you to "hard"code the IP addresses you are available at against your domains.

Before you suggest DDNS, for some companies, the length of unavailability between a changed IP and the DDNS client noticing and updating can be fatal.

why are they hosting services on their dynamically addressed business line? everyone offers static addressing on business lines. it's a completely rip off; and conveniently makes the proper route -- colocation, a dedicated server, "the cloud" -- more financially sound.
