Netgear MR1100 IPv6

I came across a post suggesting IPv6 on the Netgear MR1100 is fully functional with a screenshot as proof.

 

Has anyone been able to get this to work? There are other counter opinions that lack of IPv6 configuration on the LAN means it won't work.

 

https://superuser.com/questions/1446440/does-the-nighthawk-m1-support-ipv6/1446441

 

Thought I should credit the one known-good IPv6 configuration I'm aware of on EE's network outside of mobiles: https://github.com/jamesmacwhite/hh70-ee/wiki/IPv6-support

 

Each reset of the radio does seem to obtain a new IPv6 address on the router's WAN. DHCPv6 on the opnsense firewall obtains a vastly different address (same /64 subnet) despite being connected to the router's LAN port and an IPv6 gateway is seen that can be hit. Strangely, the opnsense box cannot hit the router's WAN with this default configuration but if I statically assign one address higher than the WAN IP to the opnsense WAN, pingv6 then works ok.

 

Name resolution of ipv6-test.com worked once but it was not reproducible.
