IPv6

[david1235]

Hi.

I noticed my ip address changed this morning and now it seems I have an IPv6 address too.  I thought Virgin Media hasn’t implemented IPv6 yet…or have they?

🤔

Hello

Currently Virginmedia in the UK do not have IPv6, are you talking about your internal or external IP address ? you can check your external by going too https://whatismyipaddress.com/

Internal could be a different issue as most network cards will give you both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses unless you disable it, it will not make any difference to your external connection.

HI @david1235 

Are you using a VPN by any chance?

The picture you posted shows the ISP as Fastly Inc and not VM

Hi.

I’m not using a vpn, but I use my own router with Cloudflare dns. Perhaps that’s why?

I have 2 Pi-Holes, which have IP6 addresses, and cloudflare DNS, so not get a WAN IP6 address. What part of the country are you? Can you give us your postcode, only the characters/numbers before the space and one after it, this way we can see where you are not not identify you actual address.

Hello david1235,

Thanks for your post. 
Do you mind if I took a look at this IPV6 query.

Will probably need to have a chat with our Product  Team to see what has happened.

Once I do can update you on here.
If you don't mind, I will need to send you a private message to pass security. 
If you can check the purple envelope top right of your screen that would be great.

That 140.x.x.x. WAN address is a Fastly block. I don’t think it’s reporting your VM address? They seem to be a CDN and Peering concern

Hi.  No problem at all.
