    Finding out IPv6 or IPv4


    A dns server not always recognizes for a site the IPv6 number and provides then the IPv4 number.
    How to find out with IE or Firefox and a certain Website, whether there is an IPv6 or IPv4 connection?

    :)

    Wireless Connectivity

    I have no IPV4 or IPV6 connectivity

    Using windows 10....dell laptop

    I have Internet access if I plug in....and my tablet can find the WiFi network but the laptop says ....in the network properties ,.....status non operational.

    Connectivity (IPv4/IPv6) disconnected.

    Troubleshooter says any networks used previously are out of range?

    Any help?

    Thanks

    Force Windows to use IPV4 DNS Server Address

    My local bind9 DNS Server address comes from a local ISC DHCP server as an IPV4 address.

    ipconfig /all show both IPV6 and IPV4 addresses for the DNS server in that order.

    nslookup always shows only the IPV6 address for the "Default Server".

    The system IPV6 prefix policy is set to prefer IPV4 over IPV6.

    I want the system to only use the IPV4 address for the DNS Server.

    So far, I have not been able to find a way to configure windows to stop using the IPV6 address

    for the local DNS server.

    Any specific help would be greatly appreciated.

    Ipv6 isn't generally used and you router may not even pass ipv6 or pass it as a tunneled ipv4
