Webserver on IPv6
I recently bought this router and I use a webserver on ipv6 address. but now I use this router, I cannot access it. I have filtering on open but still doesnt work. I can ping the ipv6 but not access any ports!
Any idea?

Perhaps it would be helpful to understand the configuration that was working correctly before purchasing the Netgear RS200 router.
- What platform is the web server running on? (Windows, Mac, Linux?)
- What brand/model of router was being used?
- Was a DNS process being used to learn the public IPv6 address of the web server, or is the public IPv6 address entered manually into web browsers?
- What web browsers were able to access the web server?

Usual questions.
What firmware is it running on?
What modem/gateway/optical network termination (ONT) connects it to the Internet?

Cannot access what? The webserver or the router?

Router Firmware Version V1.0.1.90
GP1007XFrom Public, I can only ping the ipv6 address, not access any ports. I've read even on here its not possible to access any ports on IPv6, which seems somewhat useless.

Infact, it is RS200

RS300, my bad, selected tag wrong.
