[android-developers] Re: Does Android support IPv6 now?

How do I find out if my device supports IPV6 programatically?

Hi,

Android supports IPv6 out of the box since Donuts (1.6), IIRC -- you
can browse IPv6 sites from the browser, and write applications that
connect to IPv6 hosts. No DHCPv6 or RDNS support, though, so
nameserver information will still need to come from regular DHCP.
