    I would ask your ISP about this. Kind of depends on what the ISP supports for IPv6.

        It depends entirely on what your ISP supports. It’s not a choice you can make. Just do auto-detect and the router will figure it out.

    I have AT&T Fiber and was able to select Auto Detect to get IPv6 working for me. I did go in and put in my own DNSv6 for Google and Quad9 instead of using the ISP's DNS. Not all ISPs are supporting it yet so if yours is not you'll need to do some work to get IPv6 working on your network. Tunnel Broker by Hurrican Electric is one such popular solution.
