Can not get ipv6 address

My laptop used to got ipv6 address. It can not get after some updates. I am sure the school network has ipv6 cz another pc has been used ipv6 for almost a year.

as for now, if I boot into windows11, I can get ipv6 add like 2001:xxxx. If I boot into linux, ipv6 got fe80:xxx(which is not a valid ipv6 add).

This situation occurred once in last year at August. I call IT and they check school network is ok with ipv6. Then they teach me how to kick my laptop off the school network. I tried sometimes then I can use ipv6 again. So this time I tried that way, too. But not work…

Any advice is welcome.

I used another wifi(not school) and got ipv6 add. But sometimes it can not get ipv6

I go back to school. update 2 latest, laptop still only ipv4. But pc can get ipv6. so I think this cause by os. In summar, I can use ipv6 at home most time

I contact the school network service group, and got that our school ipv6 network is not stable.
