Archer AX10/1500 Blocks ALL incoming IPv6 connections

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".

To get IPv6 incomming connections working, I had to add this settings to xml:
<rule> <name>Forward-IPv6</name> <src>wan</src> <dest>lan</dest> <proto>all</proto> <family>ipv6</family> <target>ACCEPT</target> </rule>
It's really sad we have to do some ugly settings hacking to get IPv6 connections working.
Would be nice if tplink allow advanced firewall configuration, add an option to disable IPv6 Firewall, or at least let we ssh in the router to configure it.

Public IPv4 is not available anymore here, a better IPv6 support is required.
