Connection test
IPv6 test: check your connection.
Find out whether this browser can reach our IPv4-only and IPv6-only endpoints. Each successful request shows the address the endpoint saw. The test checks this service, not every destination on the internet.
- IPv4
- Not tested
- IPv6
- Not tested
Start the test to check both address families.
A failed test can mean a network, DNS, browser or test-server problem. “Not detected” is not proof that your network has no IPv6.
IPv6 not detected? Follow the troubleshooting steps.How to read your IPv6 test result
- Detected
The corresponding endpoint responded with a valid address of that family. The request worked for this browser at that time.
- Not detected
The request failed. Network configuration, DNS, a VPN, filtering or endpoint availability can cause this.
- Timed out
The request did not complete within 4.5 seconds. Try again and compare another device or network if the result persists.
- Not configured
The service has no test endpoint configured for that family.
- Test unavailable
The test could not use the configured endpoint or its response. This can be a service problem; it does not diagnose your connection.
If IPv4 is detected and IPv6 is not, many websites can still work over IPv4. If both are detected, both endpoints responded. Translation or a proxy may be part of the path, so this does not prove native dual-stack service. Neither outcome certifies a VPN, tests every application or proves that inbound connections are allowed.
Why this may differ from your main IP address
The home page shows the address used to load it. A browser on a network with both address families can choose either one for that request. The separate tests above check each family individually. A VPN or proxy may also handle them differently.
