Hello, I am running v3.0-r33675M kongac and I've enabled IPv6 which it seems to work (I get a score of 10/10 on http://test-ipv6.com).

What I don't understand (as I am so ignorant in networking) is why I can't ping IPv6 address from my laptop, but if I telnet to the router (Netgear R7000) then I can Rolling Eyes

I open a command prompt window, and if I try ping -4 google.com I get
Code:
Pinging google.com [216.58.206.142] with 32 bytes of data:

Ping statistics for 216.58.206.142:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 21ms, Maximum = 23ms, Average = 21ms


But if I try ping -6 google.com then I can't
Code:
Pinging google.com [2a00:1450:4009:811::200e] with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
Request timed out.

Request timed out.

Ping statistics for 2a00:1450:4009:811::200e:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),


Could anyone let me know how to fix it please?

Tia.
