HI zcampe,

Not sure what "how can i deactivate ivp6 Privacy Extensions?" means, but it is relatively easy to tell your system to use IPv4 rather than IPv4 and IPv6 especially if you are having IPv6 problems which are usually due to your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

In the Network Manager of your system tray, click configure network connections, edit your Local ISP connection, on the IPv4 tab select IPv4 is required for this, then restart your computer.

And, there are these options as well.

Disable IPv6 if its not supported
See #2 & #3 to set priority to "IPv4" (I use #2 & #3)

Another good article on "Disabling IPv6"

Hope this helps ...
