Disable IPv6 Protocol

If your internal or external networks do not require IPv6 protocol, it is suggested you disable it under network connection properties. Keeping IPv6 in your computer sometimes slows down network by trying to register IPv6 addresses, or trying to get IPv6 address, or trying to resolve IPv6. Better remove it if it’s not required.

Use the following steps to disable IPv6 Protocol:

  1. Open Control Panel

  2. Select Network and Sharing Center

  3. Select the "Change adapter settings" option (up left side of window)

  4. Right click on Local Area Connection and select "Properties" on drop menu

  5. Remove the check mark on the Internet Protocol Version 6 option

  6. Click "OK" to save changes
