Several websites (all related to a single IP) time out suddenly

GoogleDNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

I tried using the Google/Cloudflare DNS IPs but didn't seem to help.
Went to look at IPv6 and I'll admit I'm a little out of my depth here. Which of these drop downs should I choose to turn on? I attempted auto-config but that didn't seem to help or hurt, though I probably didn't get something right in the actual setup.
Back on disabled now. Which drop down would you suggest, and should I be doing something inside the settings of the dropdown or keep it at automatically assigned by ISP?

Both of those instructional posts seemed to work, as in internet still works afterward, but sites/IP in question still time out afterward updating.
