Came as a bit of a surprise when it stole traffic away from my existing IPv6 tunnel. Couple of problems, though: 1) No switch to turn it off 2) No firewalling/filtering is done. This makes it somewhat less than ideal, and worse than the original Apple Airport default configuration which at least had clear and obvious knobs to make it do the right thing even if they had a poor default setting.
Would you be willing to update the ARIN ipv6 info wiki page for this? http://www.getipv6.info/index.php/Broadband_CPE Whoever looks after this - would you please consider setting up some kind of feature/bug matrix that tries to capture a bit of how "good" these things are? Just saying "Yup, supports IPv6" with no idea of how well, which bits work/don't, stuff like lacking firewalling (as above) would be good to know. Thanks!
