I haven't used ipv6 before. I don't know how to connect. I have forwarded you the ipv6 address via private message. Will you check the Putty connection?

You have to put the ip into the bruckets i posted above.
So if your ip is
"aaaa:bbb:ccc:dddd:eeee:ffff:gggg:hhhh" then in putty you need to type this: "[aaaa:bbb:ccc:dddd:eeee:ffff:gggg:hhhh]"

for me it works fine with just putting this so my guess, does your ssh configuration reads the ipv6 for ssh connection?

Hey,

Do you have support for IPv6 from your ISP? To verify visit: https://test-ipv6.com

I've already looked at that.


Your IPv4 address on the public Internet appears to be xxxx
Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) appears to be TTNET
No IPv6 address detected [more info]
You appear to be able to browse the IPv4 Internet only. You will not be able to reach IPv6-only sites.
To ensure the best Internet performance and connectivity, ask your ISP about native IPv6. [more info]
We are sometimes unable to detect Teredo and 6to4 when using HTTPS. [more info]
HTTPS support on this web site is in beta. [more info]
Your DNS server (possibly run by your ISP) appears to have IPv6 Internet access.

uhh, that's your problem. Your vps has ipv6, but you don't.
Both you as client and the server must have ipv6 in order to work.

Want a simple solution that is kinda ghetto but will work?

Run a VPS in the cloud (Windows-based) with support fpr IPv6. Vultr comes to mind for example!

This will be expensive likely (mainly due to the Windows licensing).

You could also use Ubuntu and setup Xrdp although this could be somewhat slow for you. TeamViewer or an alternative like this could provide a more smooth experience.

Make sure to have IPv4 and IPv6 support on the system. This then looks like:
IPv4 (you) to IPv4 (VPS) --- then connecting from IPv4 VPS with IPv6 support to the IPv6 target. There may be other ways to do this, just an example.
