49XD8305 and IPv6

mikesmith63 — Tue, 14 Feb 2017 11:05:01 GMT

Hi,

having got my tv communicating without failure over Ethernet, I decided it was time to look at the other setup options. So naturally I tried the prioritising IPv6 setting but i haven't been able to make it connect. I can get it working on the LAN but it fails on the WAN, has anyone been successful over IPv6 yet? I do have real IPv6 connection to the outside world on my router and am using googles IPv6 dns.

thanks, Mike.

I just turned IPv6 on, on my KD-43X8309C, and it connected, and is communicating fine.

But setting IPv6 does not seem to make IPv4 go away, so maybe it is still using this?

My bad, I had slaac stateless management when I should have had dhcpv6 stateful selected. Now works seamlessly with IPv6 as the priority.
