There is no IPv6 with EE BB. Anyway the internal private LAN IPs, 192.168.1.x, are IPv4 & always will be.

No, I'm not saying that at all. The EE SH will already cater for IPv6 but EE BB does not yet support IPv6.

@Katie_B do you have any information on ipv6 on BB? It's been 2 years since this post and I can't get it. Thank

What's the crack with Ipv6 and EE?? No one seems to know if or when it's coming to homebroadband. The Smart Hub routers have ipv6 capabilities but the EE network seem to not have the capability
