Firewall Rules for Internet/WAN -> LAN on IPv4 and IPv6, LAN -> WAN/Internet for IPv4 and IPv6
Amazing Orbi, Orbo Pro, Nighthawk Routers, DSL Routers, Mobile Routers have service blocking (only for IPv4 why ever) - limiting the LAN -> Internet access (why ever somebody want to do this) but there is no control to manage firewall rules for Internet/WAN -> LAN.
When can we expect a workable UI ot manage firewall rules for IPv4 and IPv6 LAN->Internet and Internet/WAN->LAN please?
And then support for a ISP changing IPv6 prefix (ie. if the ISP does change the IPv6 prefix because they use rapid deployment (6rd) where the prefix is linked to the IPv4 address.
And every time a user is seeking or this the Netgear mods reply to use Service Blocking - what of course does not work for WAN/Internet -> LAN.

+1 - I guess it's time to give up and buy a different product.
Any news on whether inbound firewall rules can be setup on the Orbi range?
Thanks
Hey Netgear! Anyone listening to this thread?
Every day I get a report telling me of remote access, entries like this:
[LAN access from remote] from 185.220.101.34 port 18194 to xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa port <umpty-fratz> Monday, Jun 13,2022 06:47:48
[LAN access from remote] from 64.225.14.92 port 46357 to xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa port <umpty-fratz> Monday, Jun 13,2022 06:47:40The attempts are from everywhere.
How about an update with the features that pretty much all other high-end home / sbo routers offer?
