Native IPv6 Confirmed Working with DG1670a + Asus RT-68u (NYC)

I've switched my router from a Linksys EA6900 to the ASUS RT-68u and Native IPv6 is working!
Modem is in NAT-Bridged mode and all traffic passes through to the router. All clients (wired and wireless that support IPv6 pass the tests). So, if anyone is wondering why their native IPv6 isn't working, it may be your router. The Linksys that I had claimed to support Native IPv6, but wasn't able to grab it. Asus is awesome!

Location: Astoria, NY 11102
Tier: MAXX 300/20

From my router's log:

IPv6 Connection Type: Native with DHCP-PD
WAN IPv6 Address: 2604:2000:6fc0:3:d8f7:88f0:64e4:xxxx
WAN IPv6 Gateway: fe80::217:10ff:fe87:2a97
LAN IPv6 Address: 2604:2000:1200:e142:12c3:7bff:fe40:b4a0/64
LAN IPv6 Link-Local Address: fe80::12c3:7bff:fe40:b4a0/64

I'm getting an IPv6 address as well on my Asus 56u.
»test-ipv6.com/ (test passes)
»test-ipv6.rr.com/ (test fails)

tracert test to google times out everytime on the 2nd hop.

Interesting.. I USED to have Motorola SB5101U and Linksys E2500 that is able to get IPv6. However.. I cant get IPv6 on my new setup. Asus RTN66 and Netgear CG3000D in bridge mode. I might be clueless though.. Do I need to enable IPv6 on my router?

Unless you need IPv6 for some specific reason, I would recommend disabling it until Time Warner fixes their reverse DNS delegation. Otherwise, you may experience delays accessing services which perform reverse lookups on your IPv6 address. You can see the failure in action by plugging your address into this site: »www.simpledns.com/lookup-dg.aspx

I brought the issue up with TWC support already, but they refuse to do anything about it because they don't "support" IPv6 yet. (Pity, since it's such a stupid simple thing to fix.)

Nevermind, I put in my dyndns hostname for the test posted above. After using my IP, there was an error in the middle of the test log. Turning off IPv6 for now I guess...Just as I got it working, there is something wrong with TWC's side.

Do you know any details about what services perform reverse lookups on IPv6?
