Like the title says Does EE support ipv6 on it's own? or only ipv4 and ipv4/ipv6 dual stack.

Hi there @Boss64 

Thanks for coming here. 

Which mobile broadband router do you have or looking to purchase? 

Leanne.

Hi Leanne, sorry for the late response I'm using a Huawei b525-23a mobile broadband router. 

When I go to profile management and click "new profile" it lets me choose between IPv4, IPv4/IPv6 and IPv6. The router seems to support it but when i click on IPv6 and save it defaults back to IPv4? Does EE support using IPv6 alone?

Hi @Boss64 

Thanks for coming back to me. 

I am sorry we don't have this information for this router, if this is not changing to IPv6 I would recommend getting in touch with our tech gurus to see if they can offer any further support for you. 

Leanne. 

 

After you save the new APN/Profile you need to make it the Default.

That's ok, i just wanted to know whether or not EE as a mobile network supports IPv6 ip type on it's own or as a dual stack or both?
