I’ve recently been trying to migrate over to IPv6 for some clients. Specifically, RasPlex. When I enable only IPv6 I cant connect to any of my media servers.

Please fix this plex. We need full IPv6 support. The IPv4 network here is in shambles…

I have got the same problem. I have a ipv6 only provider. And I cannot access the plex server over the plex app.

Same problem here! I’m able to access the server via the browser using a AAAA record, but none of the Apps (iOS, Fire TV) does work. My provider only offers me IPv6.

Same here, although the custom url is added in server settings, I only get relay connections in the app while getting a regular connection through the browser.

Must agree it would be nice to see Plex sort out the ipv6 offerings they have or may have to look at other options
