How to diable IPv6?

[oleksus]

I see it active in ifconfig, but my provider dont support it, and I might have problems connecting because of that.

Where do I disable IPv6?

[Lostincyberspace]

you can disable it in firefox by using fasterfox that is where the biggest problem will come in.

I don't have fastfox.

Can I maybe disable them somewhere in the config files?

in the address bar type about:config then ipv6 in the filter double click to change value

[The Cog]

Edit the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and add the line:
blacklist ipv6
then reboot. This removes IPv6 from the kernel entirely, not just the browser.

You need to use sudo to edit this file as it's outside your home directory:
gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
