[QUOTE="Brahman, post: 1081267, member: 11847"] No. It supports both. On the setup page select "windows" and you can see the IPV6 address for setting up IPV6. Like this "Replace the current addresses (if any) with 2a07:a8c0::74:3b4a and 2a07:a8c1::74:3b4a." In windows you need to [LIST=1] [*]Open the Settings app. [*]Go to Network & internet. [*]Click on Wi-Fi (or Ethernet). [*]Click on Hardware properties, or ignore this step if you clicked on Ethernet. [*]Click the Edit button next to DNS server assignment. [*]Select Manual. [*]Enable IPv6 only if you need IPv6 alone functionality. [*]Enter [U]22a07:a8c0::74:3b4a[/U] as Preferred DNS, then select On (manual template) and enter [U][URL unfurl="true"]https://dns.nextdns.io/743b4a.[/URL][/U] [*]Enter [U]2a07:a8c1::74:3b4a[/U] as Alternate DNS, then select On (manual template) and enter[U] [URL]https://dns.nextdns.io/743b4a[/URL][/U]. [*]Click Save. [/LIST] PS: replace underlined text with your own configuration. Even though it works for IPV6 I suggest you to use IPV4 alone, IPV6 doesn't provide any particular benefit when compared with IPV4. It works better with DOH as the old unencrypted port 53 dns does leak as some dns queries are sent through port 5353 too. to disable such leaks you need to enable DOH and login to your nextdns account then go to "parental control" in nextdns page, enable "Block Bypass Methods". To prevent any kind of DNS leak you need a wifi router that can support DOH or DOT natively ( like Mikrotik, routers that are installed with open/DD wrt). Normal routers do not filter port 5353 DNS queries. But if you donot want to invest money into it, you can enable DOH/DOT function in all your devices and use the parental control functions. With windows, I have seen some dns leaks even after using builtin windows doh settings. So I suggest you to use [URL='https://www.yogadns.com/']Yogadns[/URL] app. [URL='https://www.yogadns.com/docs/']Detailed instructions are available here[/URL]. YogaDNS can run as a Windows Service. This mode provides two main features: [LIST] [*]YogaDNS can run in the background when no user is logged on to the machine which will prevent any dns leaks. [*]Only the administrator can start/stop the service and change the configuration. [/LIST] Use IPV4 alone. Most of the internet still functions on IPV4 alone. [/QUOTE]
