Sky ipv6 connection

[Ki11sh0t87]

Hey guy’s anyone created ipv6 DNS connection? Am connected via Dns ipv4 via Google domain not through the Asus router though.just created the connection on single device, I have available ipv6 through pass though but won’t connect when changed settings on DNS on device.wondering if it has to be static or 6to4 to connection first on Asus router? Any one had any luck?

I forget, what ISP do you use as some ISP’s like Plusnet do not offer or allow IPv6

Wan connection is automatic ip.and for ipv6 connections it says connect via pass through,but clearly doesn’t work double checked all the details and doesn’t allow it .so don’t know if keep the automatic IP the same and create a static ipv6 connection ?

Sky supports IPv6 so that is a positive

@dodgydrains uses Full-Fibre etc, so will be interesting if he is around later and which ISP he uses etc and any issues with IPv6

Attached is how I set up IPV6 on the XT8.

I then go to https://test-ipv6.com/ to check if it worked.

Not sure it this is the correct way or not, but seems to work for me.  I am with Hyperoptic.

I only do this on the XT8, not on each device.

I use Cloudflare IPV6 or Google IPV6

Cloudflare:

2606:4700:4700::1111

2606:4700:4700::1001

Google:

2001:4860:4860::8888

2001:4860:4860::8844

Opens the pathway for DNS doesn’t on the router I’ll test weather it improves the individual device also, obviously only if that device is ipv6 compatible.cheers bud

IPV6 Passthrough is a safe option and below is a general guide to help others with IPv6

Generally, depending on your Internet Connection type:

• If you have a PPPoE internet connection, you should select Native.
• If you have a static IP internet connection, you should choose Static IPv6.
• If you have an automatic IP internet connection, you should select Passthrough.
