Galaxy WatchAfter connecting a Samsung Galaxy Watch6 to a Wi-Fi router, the Watch appears in the router's IPv4 DHCP reservations, but does not appear in the IPv6 reservations.
Does Samsung Galaxy Watch5, 6, 7 Wi-Fi support IPv6?

Galaxy WatchThe Samsung Galaxy Watch series, including the Watch5, Watch6, and likely future models like Watch7, primarily support IPv4 for Wi-Fi connections. While IPv6 is becoming more common, many wearable devices, including smartwatches, still focus on IPv4 due to its widespread compatibility and lower resource demands.
The absence of your Galaxy Watch6 in the IPv6 reservations list of your router suggests that it does not natively support or utilize IPv6 for Wi-Fi connections. This is typical for many smartwatches and other similar devices.
If you're specifically looking for IPv6 support for your devices, checking the device specifications or contacting Samsung support might provide more definitive information. However, for most users, IPv4 support is sufficient for the functionality needed from a smartwatch.

Galaxy WatchThe Galaxy Watch7 specifications
https://www.samsung.com/us/watches/galaxy-watch7/buy/galaxy-watch7-44mm-green-lte-sm-l315uzgaxaa/
makes no mention of IPv4 or IPv6.
Is this forum not a good way to contact Samsung support? Is it not monitored by Samsung support?
