  1. I’ve not done anything to change it. Why is it just this site that’s affected?

    and......I’m back on ipv6 :mad:

  2. Your ISP is the one who determines which protocol you use. It's nothing to do with this site or server.

  7. This site also sits behind Cloudflare.

    Your connection is to Cloudflare, not the server. Cloudflare are the ones who are accepting the IPV6 connection from your ISP, who then route the connection to the server. All the people who are reporting issues are on BT.

    My phone is on EE, which uses IPv6, and connecting to the site via that is shockingly bad and just times out. My home connection on virgin media is IPv4 and works fine.

  8. So what is the answer? Do we need to contact Cloudflare? Is that what you are saying?

  9. Try now? I've force disabled ipv6 support with Cloudflare on the domain.

  12. I left and rejoined the site and it is still slow.

    edit: it just got faster

  13. It might take a while for your ISP to stop using it. It's definitely disabled now.
