i have a firestick and cannot disable ipv6 on it. I have ipv6 disabled on my router but it still shows on my FS. I wondered if I used my Netgear as an access point I could connect my FS to it, but only if I could set it up with ipv6 disabled. Thanks.

Same question as plemans really, why do you want to do that?
IPv6 is a newfangled thing that appeared after the WN3000RP from 2011.
Then there is the fact that the WN3000RP is a range extender. In that case, the router it extends is in charge of network management.
