To provide a data point to your assertion my brand new tp-link wifi router has a setting for ipv6 firewall, but it does nothing. Yes all my home devices are exposed to the public internet. Yikes!

The tech support team even confirmed that ipv6 firewall support is coming ‘soon’.

Meanwhile my ASUS router’s ipv6 support is broken as well for dns configuration.

So, yeh it is still early days for consumer ipv6 adoption.

Thanks for the consumer datapoints. I don't expect much from consumer networking gear, good to see I won't be disappointed.

I was actually referring to rack gear, but hey.
