[TWC] SB6141 on rr with IPV6

I got my own SB6141 and the configuration page is showing IPV4 only mode. Is it all automatic or manual or I will get IPV6 whenever it is available in my area?

That entry in the modem simply means the mode in which the management side of the modem is handled and interfaced with, not what you get for your connection / CPE.

So whenever they offer IPV6 that field will be updated automatically!

It can say IPv6 now, but that does nto mean you would get an IPv6 address...it would simply mean that at that point, TW interfaces with your modem via IPv6 on their network (modem troubleshooting, etc). Although it would be a somewhat of a good indicator that IPv6 addresses are around the corner for users.
