1) In my case that is not an option at the moment. The modem/router combo they 
gave me does not support bridge mode.

2) Their network technology is relatively new (XSG-PON). A simple ONT that 
works with their network, so that I can bypass their hardware completely, is 
not available yet. So I am stuck with their modem/router.

3) Having said that: Even a provider supplied modem/router should support 
something basic as IPv6 pinholing. Especially if I am stuck with it.

4) Just for the record, incoming IPv6 works if I disable the firewall. I tested 
that. No need to say that permanently disabeling the firewall is not an option.


Cheers, Michiel
