It's configured to allow it but doesn't, either something wrong with the
config-file or mis2 doesn't use that setting. I don't know. Bottom line is
that it isnt working though so... :)

There lies the problem, I have no control over IPv6 firewall settings in the
router directly and from what I understand from reading up on it Netgear
doesn't seem to care much to implement it. My guess is that they just block
anything IPv6. Funny since they claim the router supports IPv6... Well, it's
technically true I guess but not very usefull for my case.

I'll open a support-ticket with them to get it confirmed. I was almost
considering setting up my FreeNAS-machine as a fw/router and see if that
works against all recommendations.
