Hi
Since moving my broadband service from a landline service to EE 4G we are not able to play some multi-player online gaming. I believe the problem is caused by double NAT and could be resolved if EE used IPV6.
I have a 4GEE Home Router 2 with WiFi disabled. It is connected to a TP-Link Mesh network that acts as the DHCP server to all devices on the network. I have tried connected the xbox directly to the 4GEE Home Router WiFi but that did not help.
Are there any other ways to get online gaming working... specifically Forza Horizon 4?
Are there any plans for EE to support IPV6 on SIM cards.

Can you change the Profile/APN on your EE mobile router to APN Protocol = IPv6?

Did this work at all, seeing the same issues?
I can see that you can change it if you set up a new APN profile but will need the eesecure account details.
