Hello everyone,

 

Is there a way to disable IPv6 for LAN?

 

The router assigns itself a delegated IPv6 address and sends packets over IPv6 and I'd like to disable that for LAN. I am not interested in the LTE/WAN IPv6.

 

Thank you.

Hi, please go to Advanced->Network->Internet page, try to change the PDP Type to IPv4 only.

If your current profile is default APN profile which cannot be changed, please create a new profile manually and set PDP Type as IPv4 only.

  @Sunshine thank you, that worked.

 

it disabled IPv6 for both LAN and LTE but that did not affect access to internet.
