BT move to IP V6 and Vigor 2860 was created by mike.smith
Hi,
With BT stating they will make the move to IP V6 by the end of the year, does anyone know what I should set my IP V6 connection protocol to? Are there any additional settings that once connected I would need as a minimum set?

Thanks in advance, Mike.

Good question Mike!

Based on the articles I've read it would appear that bt believe the ip6 address will be assigned alongside the ip4 address. Therefore in theory we shouldn't see any change.. However I can see other issues and it would be good to see official confirmation of the impact.

What I meant was, what connection type am I looking to setup in the router to take advantage of ip6 being there.. Are we just looking at a PPP connection or something slightly more complicated to configure?
