Model: Archer AX6000  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.0.6

Hello, I'm noticing that in my IPV6 configuration that the router is blocking ICMP Requests. I've created a firewall rule in Windows and also tested on my phone. Both give the same result. Could you guys please provide an option for me to unblock these requests? ICMP is very important to IPV6 operation so it would be nice to have this resolved in a firmware update.

Further reading here tells me that there was an option on some routers to disable ICMP filtering. This option is not present on the AX6000

Hi, I deleted one repeated reply.

 

Back to your case, the Archer AX6000 does not support DOS protection, that is why you cannot see it; and there is an option to enable/disable Ping from WAN under advanced-security page. It is ICMP. 

 

The toggle is available for IPV4, and it is pingable from the WAN side for IPV6, but you cannot ping the local devices from WAN side via IPV6. 

 

Good day.

@Kevin_Z Hello Kevin, thankyou for your prompt reply. Is it possible to introduce a feature that allows one to ping local devices via IPV6?

@Nerdsinc hi, I plan to buy mr100 to connect to my network - CCTVs and a pc which will be remotely accessed by the pc ipv6 address(seen in the network adapter page- wifi/lan status-details)... in mr100 were u able to ping ur computer from outside network successfully? or is mr100 filtering?

also currently is this the best device for India? it will be used in a rural place where a huawei 3372 is doing duty since nov 17 which is 4 years non stop. i didnt know about band 5 at that time.

 

also, i need to have automatic wan failover to my local fibernet if 4g fails. is this working reliabily?
