$ ping6 2601:c:3a80:953:793d:a7b5:f09e:6c84
PING 2601:c:3a80:953:793d:a7b5:f09e:6c84(2601:c:3a80:953:793d:a7b5:f09e:6c84) 56 data bytes

What kind of router? Does that router have a separate IPv6 firewall? Mine does, is why I'm asking. If I want to open a port for both v4 and v6, I have to do it for each.

Also, maybe there's an option for "Respond Ping Requests from WAN" or similar you could enable? These are just things in my router config that you may also have.

Regards,
Nick
