Their new modem/router doesn't support opening ports in the ipv6 firewall, so if you want to open ports, they recommend disabling ipv6 entirely. For ipv4, they no longer support forwarding ports from only specific source addresses either, which is way less secure. You can only forward ports from all source addresses. You also have to use their crappy app to add port forward rules, it's no longer available in the web ui. You can completely disable the ipv6 firewall in the web ui, but that wouldn't be safe.
Old motorola modem/routers could do all of the above.
It says it can do bridge mode at least, but it seems silly to need 2 devices just to open ipv6 ports.
How are routers being made now in 2023 that don't have proper ipv6 support? It seems crazy to me.
Yup, I'm aware.
There's no page for anything to do with ports for ipv6, and the documentation specifically says it's not available to open ports on ipv6.
The only options for configuring the ipv6 firewall are things like blocking ping, and disabling the ipv6 firewall entirely. There were 5 checkboxes, I forget what the other 3 were. It was at a relatives house I was helping so I can't check right now.
IMO if you have to put "you can't do xyz with IPv6" in your documentation...then you need to not ship that product...but Comcast is Comcast...sooo
