I have left Sky after many years as FV got a deal online for £15.63/2Y contract.
Been connected to Vodafone on VDSL2 80/20 and the THG3000 Modem/Router today.
Somehow managed to switch the hub web interface to "Expert Mode" instead of "Basic Mode".
Changed the DNS to CloudFlare 1.1.1.1/1.0.0.1 and looking around to see
why the IPv6 isn't working, but everything looks good and Menus:
Internet - Firewall - IPv6 Settings: No IPv6 Pinhole define.
Settings - Local Network - Network Settings - Local Network - DHCPv4 Server and IPv6 is "On"

Yes, I know I can get IPv6 via an VPN provider on many devices and I use WARP from CloudFlare.
1] So can anyone in the know advise what is the status of IPv6 on xDSL lines on VF network?
2] Will I loose public IPv4?
3] Is the IPv4 static or dynamic and how often does it change?
4] Is there any other way to extract the xDSL username/password other than chat with VF?

@VF Is there any update on IPv6 implementation on VDSL connections ????
How about mobile devices, does VF offer IPv6 on them?

2 years on and IPv6 still does not work on VDSL2 BB from Vodafone .......
(HE alternative is not an option as the IP is assigned to US region and not UK)
Does anyone know, if IPv6 is available to resellers like OneStream on VF network?

@THG3000-IPv6 IPv6 is being rolled out to broadband. In some cases it seems to include CG-NAT. Also there have been problems, as can be found on this forum.
So far there's no sign of VF's IPv6 being open to third parties. It's probably too early for anything like that.

You can select HE's London server through tunnelbroker.
If you use a third party router there's s good chance of getting vodafone's 6to4 dual stack working - that is totally independent of the delivery method.

Would you be please so kind to elaborate more on how to achieve 6to4 dual stack with 3rd party router?

On an Asus AX router all you need to do is select 6to4 on the IPv6 page, set the DNS6 servers, click apply, and let it do it's thing.
Don't have IPv6 experience with other brands.
