> I'd say ISPs to start with. In the UK, BT still hasn't rolled out IPv6.

BT have at least partially rolled out support, as I have a v6 allocation on a BT broadband service.

I have read I can get it by upgrading to the very latest version of BT Home Hub (I am using 5). I ordered it yesterday. But my current Home Hub 5 is compatible, and I still don't have IPv6.

It looks like you would have got support on your existing device soon. A recent BT presentation says:

"[IPv6 support] Home Hubs 4 and 5 support from early 2017"
