For Xbox One to connect to the internet using IPv6, your home router needs to have IPv6 enabled, and your internet service provider (ISP) must support IPv6.

Is your router a Netgear as well or is it from your ISP? If it is a Netgear here is a link to the steps to enable IPv6.

If the router is from your ISP then you should contact them to get assistance in changing it if you can't do it form the Admin on your network.

Most people have a home network behind a router/modem from their provider. The home network is not public at all and the only item with a public IP is the providers equipment; essentially your local demark point to the internet.

What you do inside that private network doesn't really matter.

IPv6 on Xbox One

Xbox One can connect to networks using two protocols that allow devices to transmit information: the traditional IPv4 communications protocol, and its newer version, IPv6. For Xbox One to connect to the internet using IPv6, your home router needs to have
IPv6 enabled, and your internet service provider (ISP) must support IPv6.

What’s IPv6?

Internet Protocol version 6 is the most current network protocol, bringing several improvements over IPv4. Most important, IPv6 expands the number of possible IP addresses (the unique numbers that represent every device on the internet). And—most useful
for Xbox—the expansion removes the need for
Network Address Translation (NAT), which can interfere with multiplayer gaming and chat over IPv4 networks.

What if my Xbox One isn’t connected using IPv6?

Your Xbox will work normally without IPv6 connectivity. However, for the best possible experience, we recommend enabling IPv6 on your network. Several Xbox One features already make use of IPv6, and we’re building more.

How can I tell if my Xbox is connected using IPv6?

Here’s how to check:

1. On your controller, Press the Xbox button
   to open the guide.
2. Select System > Settings > Network.
   
3. Select Network settings.

If your Xbox One has IPv6 connectivity, your Current Network Status will read
IPv4 & IPv6. (To see your actual IP and gateway addresses, select
Advanced settings.)

My Xbox is using only IPv4. What should I do to add IPv6?

Several home routers support IPv6 but disable it by default. Check the manual for your router, or visit our
Networking Hardware Information support forum.

My router has IPv6 enabled, but my Xbox is connected on IPv4. What else can I do?

Try contacting your ISP to see if IPv6 is available in your area.

this is something that happens at your ISP, and it's not something that could be controlled from this end.

The purpose of IPv6 is to provide additional IP addresses to the Internet and we have no effect on things like NAT issues. If you're getting an IP address, you're fine, if you're not you need to call your Internet provider

If you wish to have an IPv6 IP address, you would have to pay your provider for a static IP
