But once you know that you need a NAT loopback, you can quickly follow instructions on internet to create that rule.

Well, I've been fighting this for two years now and it still doesn't work, sooooo :)

(Also configuring IPv6 correctly is also a special hell that's far away from clicking "enable IPv6" on my previous ASUS)

Their firewall is iptables wrapped in a really nice GUI.

The criticism on their firewall might as well be a criticism on iptables (which IMO is completely valid, even after years I still have doubts about what a certain rules structure is going to do).

iptables itself is extremely unintuitive (although extremely powerful and flexible), but their GUI makes it more manageable.
