Vodafone Germany w/ ISP-Supplied Modem/Router (Fritz!Box or Touchstone): Ongoing Discussion

Hi everyone,

We’ve been testing IPv6 compatibility over in Early Access here: Testing IPv6 support in Roon (for users locked out of ARC due to ISP reliance on IPv6 or CGNAT).

In simple setups (without an additional router, managed switches, etc.), some Vodafone Germany users with an IPv6 external IP address and Fritz!Box modem/router combinations have been able to auto-configure Roon ARC in #earlyaccess. We’re still determining the settings changes required in the web administration of the Fritz!Box (IPv6 prioritization, tunneling, etc.), as it will vary setup-to-setup and by account tier.

However, this is a positive development for many who have been stranded in this thread and forced to resort to a VPN in order to use ARC. We anticipate rolling out the new IPv6 compatibility in the near future; if you’re eager to try, please feel free to join Early Access by following the steps here: https://help.roonlabs.com/portal/en/kb/articles/roon-early-access-program
