So my ERL3 runs smooth and stable now doing everything it should be doing and doing an excellent job in replacing my RT-AC88u as router
Only one thing missing to get all the functionality back, IPv6. The modem of my ISP is a HGW which has a router built in which i need because the STB for the TV requires a direct connection to the HGW for it to fully function so i basically have the STB connected to one switch port and my router to another port mapped static and with DMZ. With the RT-AC88u, IPv6 worked perfect as it was configured as "passthrough". When i added the NG switch to the network, this continued to function.
Going back to the ERL3, I did a factory default yesterday and ran the basic setup wizard again, this time with IPv6 enabled. The result of this was Eth0 (WAN) receiving an IPv6 from the HGW but Eth1 (LAN) did not get any.
Also, CPU load increased 5x so something was not right. By default, the wizard configures DCHPv6-DP but i understand there are other options. I just don't know which IPv6 configuration would represent the "passthrough" i had in the Asus router.
Hoping that someone can guide me in the right direction.
