Ipv6 2 adresses?

When i do a test of my network i find that my Iphone is on a 5GHZ network but when i look to the ipv6 network it’s the other one than i see standard on my Wi-FI settings. Is this normal?


so an example: on my iphone - Wi-Fi settings - Ipv6 i see 2 addresses (1a & 1b). Under it router is on: 1a.


when i look to my router settings i see the Iphone is connected to 1b. The second one of the 2.


is this normal? 2 ipv6 adresses and connected to the other one that i see standard on my Iphone settings?

iPhone XR, iOS 14

Hello RonaldC07,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you have questions regarding Wi-Fi. We would be happy to help!


In order to better understand what is happening, we have some questions. 

Ipv6 is your home network? 

If you receive an error message, what does it say?

What device is this happening with? Which software version?

Are you able to reproduce the issue with another device?
