Specify an IPv6 Internet Connection

If you want to use an IPv6 Internet connection, you must specify the settings manually. NETGEAR genie and the
Setup Wizard do not detect an IPv6 Internet connection automatically.

IPv6 Internet Connections and IPv6 Addresses

The modem router can support an IPv6 Internet connection through the following connection types:

Description
Your ISP uses DHCP to assign your DNS servers. Your ISP automatically assigns
this address.
If you know that your ISP does not automatically transmit DNS addresses to the
modem router during login, select this option and enter the IP address of your ISP
primary DNS server. If a secondary DNS server address is available, enter it also.
Use the default MAC address.
The modem router captures and uses the MAC address of the computer that you
are now using. You must use the one computer that is registered by the ISP.
Enter the MAC address that you want to use. By default, the field displays the MAC
address of the Internet port.
