Is there any networking equipment that was sold in the last 10 years that does not support IPv6?

I don't have a complete overview of the industry, but there were at least one or two Ubiquity gateways that didn't support hardware accelerated IPv6 routing. I also read about a lineup of Microtik switches that got updates to enable IPv6 hardware offloading this year.

Perhaps the enterprise side of networking is better about this stuff, but I doubt it if my experiences with other enterprise products is anything to go by.

The packets routed by these devices will end up at their destination, but at very low speeds.
