IPv6 Mobile Roaming (Support for IPv6 when roaming.)
Mobile device only gets an IPv4 address while roaming abroad. APN settings cannot be altered by the user (iOS).

Last Updated: 2025-07-19

0
IPv6 Support (Level of IPv6 support and implementation)
Native, available and enabled by default for all compatible mobile devices. I believe a blacklist of potentially incompatible is maintained on the provider side, but most mainstream devices do get IPv6 connectivity. The default APN provides IPv6-only with DNS64/NAT64.

IPv6 addresses for cache resolvers are configured as part of the PDP-context activation procedure, no configuration is needed.
