    How do I enable my router to allow IPv6 instead of IPv4?

    You would have to ask your router manufacturer and/or your isp

    Hello, ive only got an IPV4 address on my xbox.

    can i get an IPV6 as well?
    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.

    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.

    Strict NAT and "Can't get a Teredo IP address" error

    I ran across this problem today, as my ISP has enabled IPv6 for their customers. I own Apple Airport's as my routers. I made some changes on my router to block incoming IPv6 connections, and this broke the chat functions for multiplayer. I had to modify
    my Airport Base Station config to allow Teredo Tunnels. This solved the issue for me.

    For my Routers this was a simple checkbox, but you will need to consult your router documentation to make sure that Teredo connections are allowed. The benefit of IPv6 is that your Xbox and other connected devices get a publicly routed IP address, instead
    of a NAT'd IPv4 Address. This allows you to not have to worry about NAT issues, Port Forwarding, and uPnP.

    I wanted to share for others who do not want to disable IPv6 on their routers.

    Xbox One X dropping IPv6 Connection.

    Do you know if you ISP supports IPv6? Your router could be tunneling your IPv4 connection to an IPv6 which basically means it is sending IPv6 packets through an IPv4 connection to communicate with IPv6 servers. I found out myself the xbox doesn't
    like this at all. My ISP doesnt support IPv6. When I would look at my connection on my xbox it would say IPv4 and IPv6. So O went into my router settings and sure enough my router was set to tunnel IPv4 to IPv6. I went through set to IPv4 only and it solved
    my problem. This causes a teredo error in your xbox.
    I'm not sure. How can I check if my router is tunneling it through Ipv4?

    Connection

    Is this Xbox or PC?

    Does your ISP make IPV6 available? There are still quite a few that only offer IPV4

    Is IPV6 enabled on your router? Apparently some routers have it disabled by default and so it needs enabling within the router settings.... the router manual should tell you how.
