Archer AX10/1500 Blocks ALL incoming IPv6 connections
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hello guys,
I'm using archer ax10 since March and I have some problems with IPv6. At home, I have a personal web server/cloud, sometimes I need to use it over IPV6 but ax10 blocks all ipv6 incoming connections, I tried all available firmware builds, I disabled the SPI firewall but nothing happens. In traceroute last ip accessible is always the ax 10 and then nothing. My server can connect to ipv6 servers so outgoing works. I tried another old ASUS router with openwrt installed and ipv6 incoming connections works so my ISP isn't blocking any ports.
Why a IPv6 advertised router has no settings for ipv6 port forwarding, ipv6 subnet config, (ipv6 local ip does not appear in lan connected devices) or any in depth settings for ipv6? Looks like ipv6 is just a side project on this router...
Anyone has any ideas, maybe in the next update, I mean is the new generation of routers so incompatible with next gen internet??
I understand that in some situations allowing incoming ipv6 is a security problem, but all I need is a check box somewhere in the menu with "allow incoming ipv6, I understand the risk".

@sickplanet thank you a lot for your tutrorial... however in my case, binwalk cannot extract any signatures from my exported backup.bin. Simply nothing, no matter which arguments I use.
Would you be so kind and share KEY and IV for my router AX1800 ?
Hardware Version: Archer AX20 v1.0
Firmware Version: 1.2.0 Build 20200929 rel.54838(4555)
thanks in advance !

Thank you for posting on the TP-Link Community.
We TP-Link understand that you want to have the network permission to access the local IPv6 server/service from outside, that is currently not supported on the Archer AX10 and AX1500 routers. We have confirmed this with the dev team there will be new firmware in the near future to add the support for IPv6 firewall on/off, you will then be able to access the local IPv6 server by disabling the IPv6 firewall on the router. There is currently no estimated time for the new firmware for the AX10, please pay attention on your router web or on the official website for any new firmware updates in the future.
One more important note, we understand that @sickplanet wants to provide guide and help others who want to access their local IPv6 server, however, we do also consider this as a great risk that some "hackers" may make config file that ruin your device or even hijack the network. TP-Link will not be able to help those who install this kind software on your device and suffer from any loss for your personal info or property. So we strongly suggest our customer DON'T install this kind of software on your router to protect your network security.

@Kevin_Z Will this solution also be made available for the Tp-Link AX6000 model?

official TP-Link support never give us the true answer for some reasons.
But keys to crypt\decrypt identical on my ax11000
ALL ACTIONS are performed at your own peril and risk.
This type of action was never covered by the warranty as I known.
The chance to brick the device is great

@MayBe88 Truth. It is not admissible routers of this size that are the most expensive of the brand do not have this basic function. Since with the scarcity of IPV4, most ISP only provide public IP for IPV6. IPV4 is only available through NAT. Worse still is to launch these devices without this basic support and take so long to launch a firmware with the implementation of this function. The only thing that remains for those in need is to seek alternative forms that are not official even though they know the risks to which they are subject. The company must be aware that whoever buys this type of equipment is not a common user. They are advanced users who need at least these most basic functions.

Yes, there will be, please keep an eye on the official website or on the router web GUI.

Recently there have been firmware update for my AX1800
Firmware Version:1.3.0 Build 20210318 rel.47238(4555)
Hardware Version:Archer AX20 v1.0
so I was putting my hopes in it, that it finally allows incoming IPv6 connections. But nothing happened, I still cannot see any control for turning on incoming IPv6. It was NOT present in that firmware update ? Will that ever happen ? There were some promises about "wait for next FW update" on this chat....
