    I have no Ipv6 internet access on one Wired PC


    I recently noticed I have no Ipv6 internet access on one Wired PC.

    IPv6 is enabled on my network adapters (all settings set to automatic) but on all network adapters status I see "no internet access" next to Ipv6.

    We have 2 Wireless devices on the same network that have IPV6 working and a Xbox one x hardwired



    This is what I tried:

    - I updated my NIC drivers (sucessfully)

    - installed all latest windows 10 updates (also with sucess)

    - temporarely disabled Windows defender firewall and avast anti virus

    - temporarely disabled and stopped the IP helper Windows service (services.msc)

    - in CMD: "ipconfig /release" followed by "ipconfig /renew"

    - in CMD: "netsh winsock reset catalog" + "netsh int ipv6 reset reset.log"

    - rebooted serveral times the PC



    I find it strange that other computers in our home network have no issues with Ipv6.

    Are there other network or Windows settings I need to check on my PC, or does my network card not support ipv6?

    My PC was custom built 2015 - i7 cpu with Win 10 installed), I don't know if this makes any difference



    Thank you in advance for the help.

    IPv6 is the new version but at the moment its not generally used and home routers and ISP may not support it so there will be no internet access for it. The only time its used is for Homegroups which has now been removed from windows

    This is true though it has been the NEW version for years now , At some point i assume it will be the standard , I am only curious as all my wifi devices show it working from ipv6 Test sites, as does my Xbox one X , But for some reason my Asus X87 Pro will not show IPV6 working wired or wireless so i assume this is a problem with windows 10 , I am using a Netgear X10 behind a bgw210 gateway . I love how Microsoft gives you a error while logging into a gaming site about not having ipv6 and a link to read, when the only pc or device it does not work on is a Microsoft windows 10 SMH ....

    In general ipv6 doesn't work what happens is it creates tunnels adapter and tunnels out via ipv4
