Stephane,
I’ve investigated this and it looks like our router is not set for IPv6.
I know how to make the change but it requires a loin and password, something that I have forgotten with the age of the thing. I will speak to our Service Provider and see if they can tell me, else I can do a factory reset and go from there.
Hopefully that will fix the problem.
Thanks for you help so far.
Cheers
Roger
Well, something on your network is handing out IPv6 addresses, that’s the real problem.
If your router doesn’t have IPv6 enabled, then it’s some other machine that’s incorrectly doing it.
You could do echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/eno1/disable_ipv6 as a temporary fix for your system, but you should look into what’s been handing out IPv6 addresses and routes to your machines.
Still struggling with this (it’s a bit beyond my knowledge really)
It seems to be something about routing ?
ip -6 route
::1 dev lo proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
fe80::/64 dev eno1 proto kernel metric 100 pref medium
default via fe80::1af1:45ff:feb0:338 dev eno1 proto ra metric 100 pref low
ping -6 google.com
PING google.com(mel05s02-in-x0e.1e100.net (2404:6800:4015:803::200e)) 56 data bytes
From fe80::1af1:45ff:feb0:338%eno1 (fe80::1af1:45ff:feb0:338%eno1) icmp_seq=1 Destination unreachable: No route
From fe80::1af1:45ff:feb0:338%eno1 (fe80::1af1:45ff:feb0:338%eno1) icmp_seq=2 Destination unreachable: No route
From fe80::1af1:45ff:feb0:338%eno1 (fe80::1af1:45ff:feb0:338%eno1) icmp_seq=3 Destination unreachable: No route
OK, so after spending the entire day, trying every possible option I could, I finally decided to call or ISP and apparently they do not support IPv6.
So that clears that up.
I may look into swapping ISP’s but for now, unless Incus supports any other way of doing this I will have to leave it.
Thanks for everyone’s help and apologies for leading everyone on a wild goose chase.
Cheers

What you would need to do, is just disable IPv6 on your Linux distribution (and reboot).
That should be enough to get everything working with IPv4 only.
Because the Incus repository is also available on IPv4.
There are many tutorials on how to disable IPv6. Some suggest to disable the ipv6.ko Linux kernel module. My suggestion is to go into the properties of your network interface and disable IPv6 there. Here is how it looks in GNOME.
Oh. That would be great. 1st thing tomorrow.
Thankyou kindly
Roger
Ok so it’s working with IPv4 now, excellent. I have managed to get everything going.
Thank you to everyone that assisted me in this thread
Cheers

Can you mark as solved?
Regards.
Yep, sorry 'bout that
Cheers
You would tick the Solution mark on the reply that would be the most helpful. By doing so, the forum software will show a summary of the solution at the top, and also search engines will be able to pick up. You can re-apply the tick to another reply.
