IPv6 not working

I cannot access IPv6 websites or things. I do my best, but it dosn't work.   My router detects WAN IPv6, but for some reason My internet isn't connecting with IPv6 only IPv4

    Have you tried the Passthrough option of IPv6?

      Even when I go to my netgear and set the IPv6 to passthrough nothing changes.

       

      Well, I mean, My netgear changes to passthrough, but no IPv6 are used/detected from anything.

        Your devices should get an IPv6 address when router is set to passthrough. You may need to restart your devices for them to aquire an IP address
