What firmware version are you running? Netgear released a firmware recently but I don't believe IPV6 is mentioned in the Release notes. I'd certainly still suggest upgrading to it if you haven't already as it's worth a try!

It's the last version : XR1000 1.0.0.58_1.0.44
I can propagate the subnet from my ISP on my local device but impossible de reach anything outside my network in ipv6... ipv4 work without problem.
And there are no advanced usage to make more test, check if there are some firewall rules somewhere that could cause issue....
It's in time like that, that I'm happy when I can work with real linux device and just use command line to check everything.... But I wanted some "easy setup".... I should just take a good access point and build my own router...
[EDIT]
I have try to reboot the router, but now it just doesn't get the ipv6 configuration from the ISP (was fine before the reboot)...
Will just wait for the next firmware upgrade....

Just bought a XR1000 yesterday. Same issue, DumaOS is showing IPv6 but Xbox Series X only getting IPv4 via LAN using DHCP.

I don't think that Netgear cares about the fact that they have delivered a non- functioning product (pretty much). Many games don't function properly without using ipv6. This router has been out for quite some time and they have yet to fix it. That says to me that they are not interested in quality or fixing this very important bug.

Whiskey8 What firmware is the XR1000 running, did it auto-update to the latest?
If you connect you xbox directly to the modem/router above the XR1000, does it then get IPv6?

Thank you for the response. The app checked during setup and I checked again through Duma, both said it was current with 1.0.0.58
Looks like it's good now, might have just taken a bit to propogate. Xbox is now showing both IPv4 and IPv6.
I was getting IPv6 direct from modem and with the router this one replaced, TP-Link Archer 5400. Still not getting the speeds I pay my ISP for but this new Nighthawk is giving me about 20% faster download speeds than the archer was. Upload is weirdly a lot lower via LAN but it's still above what I need.
