    IPv6 is automatic mostly over LAN or wireless. IF IPv6 is setup on the XR router then it populates to both wired and wireless devices if they support IPv6.

      I have ipv6 setup and it's on but only on the lan if I use wifi it just uses ipv4. I cant use the wired connection since the port shuts off and restarts randomly and my nat type goes from open to unavailable. But using wifi it works. I must have a lemon router cause it has tons that is wrong with it. I spend more time fixing it that actually playing.
