Websites like ipv6-test.com and test-ipv6.com say that my browser is using IPv4 by default.
This happens on Firefox and LibreWolf. I have tried creating a new profile without add-ons as well. Ungoogled Chromium uses IPv6 by default. If I go to ifconfig.io using Firefox, IPv4 is displayed. But if I use Ungoogled Chromium, IPv6 is displayed.
Is there a way to force IPv6?
I am not bothered by this, but using tools like ping6 and traceroute6 assures me that IPv6 routing is faster for, at least, one of my ISPs.
Hmm, maybe this could be a DNS issue. Are you using DNS over HTTPS on Firefox (check on
about:preferences#privacy? If so, what do you have the DNS provider set as?Also what happens if you go to a website that is ipv6 only such as https://ip6only.me/? Does it fail to connect or does it then actually use ipv6?
