So, is it that IPv6 doesn’t exist in Nepal? If you say so, then so. Time and often as a user or consumer, we hear about large ISPs and NSPs like Subisu and WorldLink deploying IPv6 in Nepal but it’s gone with the wind. So, we still need to wait for proper policies and commitment from Nepal Telecommunications Authority (NTA) and the Department of IT/Ministry of ICT to come up with IPv6 fit for Nepal.
Having visualized IPv6 deployment stats in Nepal, what’s your thought about it. Do share with us by commenting below.

    Very nice and research done article.
    Nepal’s IPv6 scenario is really pathetic. No ISP and government gives a shit about standardizing the adoption.
