Hello, Wayneines. I’m Arturo, a community user like you, and I’ll be glad to provide some assistance with your inquiry.

It is important to clarify that your Xbox uses IPv6 automatically. So, if IPv6 is enabled on your router, but the Xbox isn’t using an IPv6 address, you may want to contact your ISP to if there is any kind of restriction between the router and the Xbox.

Additionally, I want to mention that your Xbox works perfectly with IPv4.

This information and more can be obtained here:

I'll remain attentive to any other inquiry you may have.

Regards,

Arturo.

I'm sorry to hear that the previous suggestions didn't work for you. Here are a few more troubleshooting steps you can try:

Disable IPV6: Some routers have the option to disable IPV6. Try disabling IPV6 on your router and see if this resolves the issue.

Set a static IP: Try setting a static IP address for your Xbox Series X on your router and see if this resolves the issue.

Power cycle the modem: Try unplugging your modem for a minute and then plugging it back in. This will force a power cycle and may resolve the issue.

Disable your VPN: If you're using a VPN, try disabling it and see if this resolves the issue.

Check for firmware updates: Check to see if there are any firmware updates available for your router and Xbox Series X and install them if available.

You could try setting a manual IPv6 address as shown in the forum post here.

Hey there!

Nice to meet you! I'm Darhyl, a fellow gamer. I'm sorry you are experiencing this. I am here to help.

If I may ask, may I know which platform device are we referring to here, is it on Windows PC or Xbox console?

If it's on console, to switch from IPv4 to IPv6 on Xbox Series X, you can follow these steps:

On your Xbox Series X, go to Settings.

Select Network.

Select Advanced Settings.

Select IP settings.

Change the "IPv6" setting from "Automatic" to "Manual."

Enter your IPv6 address, subnet prefix length, and default gateway information provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

Save your changes.

Note that not all ISPs support IPv6, so you may need to contact your ISP to confirm if they do and obtain the necessary information to set it up on your Xbox Series X.

Thank you for your time. I hope you have a great day!
