Nope. You should get a blank line from
$ ip a | grep inet6

$ sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/aliases

replace
alias net-pf-10 ipv6

with the following four lines (the off gives a clue to what it's doing)

alias net-pf-10 ipv6 off
alias net-pf-10 off
alias ipv6 off
#alias net-pf-10 ipv6

Reboot...

Blacklisting is not enough by itself.

There are also some ipv6 settings listed in System > Administration >
Network Tools. Check the hosts tab. I deleted them, as I have no real need
for IPV6

To blacklist
sudo echo "blacklist ipv6" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist 

Reboot again...

Then see if it's running by
$ ip a | grep inet6

As a point of reference, I had absolutely no connection on one network and
full connection on another prior to removing IPV6. The same hardware used
with extremely similar settings. It didn't really make sense to me why
removing IPV6 seemed to do the trick. Hopefully it will for you.
