Connection settings control the IP protocol used to establish connections to RAGE servers. This is different from Tunnel, which controls how traffic flows through the tunnel.
Note: Changes apply when you reconnect to RAGE.
IP Version for Server Connection
Choose which IP protocol to use when connecting to RAGE servers:
| Option | Description | When to use |
|---|---|---|
| IPv4 | Connect using server's IPv4 address. Works everywhere. | Default, most networks |
| IPv6 | Connect using server's IPv6 address when available. | When ISP throttles IPv4 traffic |
When to Use IPv6
Some ISPs throttle (slow down) IPv4 traffic while leaving IPv6 unaffected. If you experience slow speeds with IPv4, try switching to IPv6.
Important: If a server doesn't have an IPv6 address, RAGE will automatically use IPv4 for that server. No connection error will occur.
Device Status
The Connection screen shows your device's current network capabilities:
- IPv4: Shows if your network supports IPv4 (green = available)
- IPv6: Shows if your network supports IPv6 (green = available)
- Connection: Your current network type (Wi-Fi, Cellular, Ethernet)
How to Configure
- Open RAGE and go to the Settings tab
- Tap Connection
- Select IPv4 or IPv6
- Reconnect to RAGE for changes to take effect
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Slow speeds on IPv4 | Try IPv6 (if your network supports it) |
| Can't connect with IPv6 | Switch back to IPv4 |
| Device shows "IPv6 Unavailable" | Your network doesn't support IPv6. Use IPv4. |
Connection vs Tunnel
These two settings control different aspects of your RAGE connection:
| Aspect | Connection | Tunnel |
|---|---|---|
| Controls | Connection TO server | Traffic THROUGH tunnel |
| IP Version | Server address (IPv4/IPv6) | Tunnel routing (Dual Stack / IPv4 Priority / IPv6 Priority) |
| Fallback | IPv4 if server has no IPv6 | IPv4/IPv6 Priority with fallback to other protocol |
| Use case | Bypass ISP throttling | Control traffic routing |
