ORBI RBRE960 IPv6 Firewall Settings
For the life of me, I can't figure out how to edit any IPv6 firewall settings. It seems to be set to filter all packets incoming (secure by default which is great) when you aren't using IPv6 passthr...
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6A STP is recommended.
What is the model# of the NG router?
When the Orbi is in AP mode, you would configure any firewall rules on the host router, not the RBR in AP mode.

* Firmware: First thing I did was install the latest firmware: V6.3.7.10_3.3.3
* ISP: Starlink Gen 2 square dish with modem in bypass mode
** Have used multiple cables between the modem and the router when I was diagnosing the original problem with starlink (that junior0415 provided a workaround which also worked for me)
* Netgear RBRE960
I'm definitely aware that if I had my orbi in AP mode, the firewall would be either ineffective or disabled. I'm currently running the RBRE960 as the router.
Ok, thanks for the details and confirming the configuration.
