IPv6 connectivity test/
Connect separately to dedicated IPv4 and IPv6 endpoints to see your actual exits. Check again after switching networks.
IPv4 / IPv6 connectivity results
Your browser connects directly to ipify’s separate IPv4 and IPv6 endpoints. Results show only the exit IPs used for those requests. This site looks up the location details.
FAQ
What does a successful IPv6 check mean?
Your browser reached this page’s IPv6-only endpoint and obtained an IPv6 exit. This confirms only that request path, not IPv6 support in every app or website.
Does an IPv6 timeout mean my broadband lacks support?
Not necessarily. Endpoint faults, DNS, proxy rules or browser restrictions can also cause timeouts. Retry, then compare on another network. Missing results remain unconfirmed.
Why do IPv4 and IPv6 show different regions or providers?
The protocols may use different exits or proxy routes. Geolocation data may also differ in freshness. Consider the actual addresses, check times and network settings together.
Does this test IPv6 speed or MTU?
No. It checks only endpoint connectivity and returned addresses. Request duration is not bandwidth, an ICMP ping or a full IPv6 compatibility score.
How should I test while using a VPN or proxy?
Record the current results, adjust the connection, then check again. Results describe the browser’s path to ipify, not necessarily the exits used by other sites, UDP traffic or the whole device.
Which services does the test contact?
The browser directly contacts ipify’s IPv4 and IPv6 endpoints, then this site looks up each address’s location. Services see the request source. Results are not persisted; hiding only masks the display.
