Anyone else running mobile network on IPV6? Im getting slower speeds

---

I recently set up my APN to use IPV6 instead of IPV4. However, my download speeds are around 8 mb rather than 18 mb on IPV4 mobile network.


Is there a reason for this? Can anyone else confirm that this is happening to them?

I got similar results. I just switched back.

How were you testing? Was it via an IPv4 or IPv6 host?

That's the thing, I'm not sure how to do a test on an IPV6 host. I am assuming the Comcast server here in Boulder has IPV6 because my Internet does. When tested on he tmobile server in Denver I got consistent but lower speeds.

I've noticed the IPv6 APN maybe some 10–20% slower, but not 60%!

Consider making a detailed post on how you tested, and add a post to T-Mobile's IPv6 mailing list so some of us can try to reproduce?

I have applied to the group. Whenever I get accepted I will post a detailed response.

Thanks.

I switched to IPv6, and my speeds are better than with the standard T-mo data settings.
