Yayzi Broadband Rolls Out IPv6 Network-Wide
Yayzi Broadband is proud to announce the launch of IPv6 across our entire network a significant step toward future-proofing our infrastructure and enhancing network performance, scalability, and connectivity.
IPv6 is now live and will be rolled out to all Yayzi customers in the coming days. This upgrade brings expanded IP address availability and improved network efficiency.
The changes will be deployed in a rolling schedule, beginning in the early hours of Monday 21st July, and should be completed by the following morning (that is, 0800 Tuesday 22nd).
During this time, as your connection is moved to the IPv6 enabled configuration, you may lose access to your internet service for up to 10 minutes. This is normal and expected - please do not raise a ticket, your connection will return automatically.
No Action Needed for Most Customers If you’re unsure what IPv6 is or whether you need it, rest assured—no action is required. Your existing connection will continue to function as normal.
For Customers Using Non-Yayzi Routers If you are using a third-party router, please consult your router manufacturer for IPv6 setup instructions.
Enabling IPv6 on Yayzi-Supplied Routers To enable IPv6 on a Yayzi-supplied router:
1 Log into your router.
2 Go to the Advanced page.
3 Click on the Network tab (left side), then select Internet.
4 Under “Modify,” click the pencil and paper icon.
5 Scroll to the IPv6 section and check the tick box.

Please Note: IPv6 is fully tested across our network and on all Yayzi-supplied routers. However, at this time, Yayzi will provide only limited technical support for IPv6 configuration and does not support individual software application setups for IPv6.
We thank all our customers for their continued support as we continue to enhance and modernise our network.
