SendNukes Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Just a general question. Should ipv6 be enabled or disabled? I read online that ipv6 is better, but for what this router does. Should I enable or disable? Asking for both Lan ipv6 Wan ipv6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N3CR0 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 For gaming, it seems that having ipv6 turned off is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zippy Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 In all reality IPV6 doesnt have to be enabled. But I also have it enabled on both LAN and WAN. My Xbox responds very well with it. And Microsoft really pushes it to enable it. Ive always been for IPV6 because it is the wave of the future regardless. And learning now about it then later I feel is my best option.. The key to IPV6 though is making sure its working and setup properly. That is key.. Currently I see odd behavior with it on DumaOS products. But there software is still evolving for full IPv6 support I feel.. Im an Xbox exclusive user. And I do get error codes every so often that state I need to enable IPV6ICMP.. I even called Xbox Support and they had me walk through a few tests. And they said the same thing about IPv6 ICMP.. Now whats strange for myself is the XR500 performs different then my R2.. Both give different results. So im still working between both of those routers to see what is causing this.. So as far as enabling it is up to you. If you have somewhat of a understanding of it I say go for it.. Never hurts to try it.. If it causes issues for yourself then disable it.. Now as far as gaming is concerned is it better.. Well I think that all depends on what platform you play on and what type of IPV6 your ISP uses..Theres variables there to look into.. Thanks! Zippy.

SendNukes Posted November 1, 2020 Author Share Posted November 1, 2020 My isp supports native ipv6. I primarily play on xbox. But all of the features on netduma r2 function at full potential with ipv6 as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 1, 2020 Administrators Share Posted November 1, 2020 As far as I am aware there are no issues on the latest build caused by IPv6 on the R2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
