IPv6, Windows 11, and MSFS

As an even earlier step, you should check if your ISP offers IPv6 to begin with.

There are ways to get access even if they don’t, but there aren’t really any advantages for the average person. I did that 15 years ago as a tech nerd, but aside from the geek factor, it had mostly downsides (such as lower performance and increased latency from having to send all the traffic to another site for “repackaging” to IPv6).

To be clear though, IPv6 itself doesn’t have those downsides – that’s only if your ISP doesn’t offer it, and most don’t.
