Please help me with IPv6 on XBOX ONE

Hi deathpoolmetal, let's see if we can help.

Is there any reason / concern that you need to use IPv6? Your Xbox will work fine on an IPv4 only network.

Do you know if your router supports IPv6? The latest version does not require a router to be compatible for devices to communicate with each other internally (as they with give themselves an IPv6 address) but your router and internet service provider need
to support it to work externally.

If you want to post a screen shot of your network settings, we may be able to confirm this. Make sure you mask any external IP addresses.

Hope that helps.

Hi Goldengray,

the B900-230 support IPv6 but your ISP!? Please take al look here
"IPv6 on Xbox One"

Hope this helps and please keep us informed

What do you mean don't worry.. Ipv6 has tons of benefits over ipv4 any day

the main benefit for gamers will be they won't have to worry about NAT anymore, no more private networks, no more routing overhead, every connected device will have its very own IP address accessible from anywhere on the internet, which does have a number
of benefits, but it is nothing to worry about yet because it is not widely used yet.

There are still several MS services that aren't even using ipv6 yet.

I'm also using Comcast with native ipv6 and I didn't change anything with the xbox. When I check my router, I can definitely see that it's grabbing an ipv6 address as well as an ipv4, so I know it's working. However the settings on the xbox are pretty weak
at this point, and it only shows the ipv4, so at this point I don't think there is a way to run it only on ipv6.... It's going to use both no matter what you do until Microsoft updates the menu....
