XR500 how to enable ipv6 on the local computer
Any suggestions on how to enable Ipv6, I downloaded the instructions on the XR router which was straight forward. But I am missing something. (note trying to connect to meta agent software to connect to a split vpn). I can see its active when I look at my router settings, but when I try to connect it point to my computer with the error message Ipv6 is disabled on this computer enable the functionality to continue". Any suggests greatly appreciated

- Netduma-FraserNetDuma PartnerSo you've enabled IPv6 in Settings > Advanced Settings > IPv6? If so then this gives you the option to enable DHCP so it can give IPv6 addresses to LAN devices so shouldn't be necessary to apply on the device itself. If it is necessary then option 2 on this guide shows you how https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/90033-enable-disable-ipv6-windows.html
