I know there is a flag for IPv6 support already but apparently it does not work - I am one of the “lucky once” that can test it. Currently many users get a [Dual-Stack Lite (DS-Lite)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_transition_mechanism#Dual-Stack_Lite_.28DS-Lite.29 "Dual-Stack Lite (DS-Lite)") internet access that leaves them with a IPv6 address and therefor this feature needs more love. There needs to be a description on how to enable it and make it work. And probably some internal changes to serve movies over IPv6. Many users are already asking for it and will will get more - [Currently there are 101 results for this problem on plex!](https://forums.plex.tv/search?adv=&search=ipv6+dual+stack&title=&author=&cat=all&tags=&discussion_d=1&discussion_question=1&discussion_poll=1&comment_c=1&comment_answer=1&within=1+day&date= "currently there are 101 results for this problem on plex!") > **[\[Feature Request\] IPv6 support for PMS/PlexWeb](https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/163242/feature-request-ipv6-support-for-pms-plexweb)** > > Hi everyone,   since ISPs are rolling out DS-Lite connections to customers the need for IPv6 support in Plex is rising.
