My router software must have updated because it was showing in Dot-Quad format last week.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Possible, could also be that your ISP finally started issuing v6 addresses. My router's been IPv6 capable for years, but only in the last 6 or so months did my ISP start actually issuing the addresses.

Yes, hideous isn't it? I hate IPv6.
"If it's not broken, fix it until it is" - that's exactly what they did.

debugging scenario...
can you read back your ip to me?
blah, blah, ek6d. Nope, still doesn't work.
I can see a lot of copy and paste for this because reading this back to someone, if you had to, would be a nightmare.

What are you talking about!!! This make perfect sense..... to someone.

People in year 2030: "Image that once upon a time people couldn't remember even single IPv6 address."
|

That's because we need billions upon billions of additional IP addresses for all the network-connected fridges that will be built.
... And then rot away in warehouses, because no-one is even remotely interested in owning one.

As others pointed out, it's an IPv6 address. Also noteworthy: Per IANA the 2505:: addresses aren't allocated for use by anyone.
Translation: This is either a simple configuration mistake or you otherwise have things (like a router/access point) on your network you really don't want.

Good passwords are hard to remember. A pattern that makes a password memorable is likely to make it vulnerable to attack.
A rather interesting scheme and allegedly secure.

Actually this is true, but we need to make use of multiple words. Password might have only one word in it, but we can have more than one word appended and mixed so that we can memorize it, and can be safe too.

While I tend to agree with you (Google the words in my above post),it this is not necessarily better, here a good read: http://arstechnica.com/security/2013/03/how-i-became-a-password-cracker/[^]
So you would need more than only putting more letters. For instance correctbatteryhorsestaple is easily found with a 4word rule in hashcat.

I was actually thinking that Duncan's solution below was a pretty good idea. The problem is, is I don't know the words to God Save the Queen so it would not work for me.
