hub 3 ipv6 firewall settings

Tuning in

After i change my firewall settings ( ipv4 firewall) the ipv6 firewall setting appear to the right of the screen. I can see that firewall protection,port scan detection and ip flood protection are all ticked.

Why am i not allowed to change these selections to off?

Would these ipv6 settings be interfering with my vpn?

VM for their residential service in the UK have not implemented IPv6. Therefore any IPv6 setting you see on the Hub3 are irrelevant.

Which OS are you using? I just had VM installed last week and I now see all my IPv6 devices out on the Internet.

VM residential doesn't support IPv6.

If VM doesn't support IPv6, then why can I ping them FROM the internet?

post the ping and tracert showing you pinging an IPv6 address from inside your network to an IP address outside your network.
