I have done all of that in the past and they reverted back to an older firmware
as they had problems with some on the newer firmware (My guess is they had
idiots who could not separate the ipv4 fromt he ipv6) You can no longer specify
IPV6 ports.

Plus to complicate things I have a business class router and it is fiber.  I
have to practically call them when they change my firmware and beg for them to
reset what they have changed.  

If it wasn't the cheapest fiber in town I would have switched a long time ago,
but I retired from the industry and this is at a price I can afford if I give
it up I will never be able to afford this class of service again.
