I have a Regional Gateway (RG) now which contains a UDSL modem, a router
and jacks for 2 phone lines and 2 Ethernet connections and an HDMI jack for
the TV.  Some of these RGs can have the password changed by the user and
this particular one is no different, but the password it has built-in is so
good, I left it that way.  It is different than the Device Access code, but
not as easy to memorize.  AT&T has yet to enable IPv6 in the RG,
although I have asked them about it several times.  IPCONFIG will show a
temporary one, but it is local and not enabled for WAN.  Everyone I spoke
to about it at AT&T gave me a different answer, leading me to believe
that the left hand sometimes doesn't know what the right hand is doing.
