Is anybody else having issues with Afrihost and youtube? Mine is basically unuseable, it needs buffering constantly. I have approached Afrinatic about the issues and every week it's the same thing of we are trying to fix it with google, just want to try to see how many other people are experiencing this issue? I was told to swap to Ipv6, that would be great however apparently Afrihost doesn't support Tp-Link deco routers.......... Seriously?

Hi,
We finally managed to find the working settings for IPv6 on the TP-Link deco routers with TP-Link support.
Please can you enable IPv6 as configure it as below. This should give you a working dual stack IPv6 setup. Once you have enabled IPv6 and it's working can you check if YouTube performs better?
Okay so far so good, this seems to be working, let me run this through out the night as Im working so will be up late, then will report back tomorrow morning, hhopefully this is the soloution

@AfriNatic Wouldn't these settings apply to all or most routers in use everywhere?

Right folks, the soloution posted above works, IPv6 is now enabled, it takes about 12 hours for https://test-ipv6.com/ to see that it is indeed working as it should be. No more issues with youtube! thanks @AfriNatic
I tried it now still having issues with IPv6. What should the prefix be for a Afrihost IPv6 address?
I used the settings you suggested and mine starts with FE80::81A3.
There is a error symbol for the IPv6.
For LAN the prefix is 2C0F:F4C0

The lan prefix is our IPv6 prefix so it seems like it's working or almost working.
