IPv6 Settings - Automatic, Native. but Enable Sharing?
Configure IPv6: Automatic
IPv6 Mode: Native
But should I check or not "Enable IPv6 Connection Sharing"? Also what is and exactly does IPv6 Connection Sharing do is it sharing on my LAN, WAN, or is this just something between my Cable Modem and the Time Capsule?

Unless you need IPv6 for some reason, you should probably turn it off. Many users have found that since Worldwide IPv6 day web browsing has slowed to a crawl. It obviously isn't implemented world-wide at all yet and IPv4 will still be around for years to come. If and when you need it to access an IPv6 only site, you will have to make certain that your Cable Modem supports IPv6 and configure your Time Capsule for it, as well.

My Cable Modem is recent it supports IPv6 (Cisco DPC3008) and I know that Comcast will be implementing it in my area soon.
So I guess i'll just have to wait? The settings are kind of confusing though and I'm pretty techy and know quit a bit about IPv4.
(sorry for the bump)Thank you for that response. But you didn't answer his second question, which was asking what was IPv6 Connection Sharing.

Because I have no idea. I had never even heard the term until I read it here.
