There might be valid reasons on why bridge mode is not supported on VF routers (XLAT and RA parameters probably), nevertheless since I don't care about IPv4 too much I'm more than happy to throw my own router down the road, but currently VF routers don't allow this (disregarding IETF recommendations, partially implementing rfc3769), as they disable the only meaningful way of doing it by blocking IPv6 prefix delegation via DHCPv6 PD requests. With the old VF station you simply cannot put another router below it, without doing nasty crap like NAT66 (then WTH is the point of assigning a /56 to my VF station?) or NDPProxying (it hurt my brain just to think about it). Meanwhile VF please get your shit together with the IPv6 stuff, it's 2025...

Hi there, sorry for writing in english but my czech isn't yet good enough... I had my internet with VF for a few years now (1G cable) and recently decided to implement proper sanitation on the network to block my son from accessing brainrot content on various websites; well turns out that android doesn't support DHCPv6 and bypasses my custom DHCP server for the IPv6 stack via SLAAC. Obviously it's not a direct fault of VF but i cannot push my custom DNS (pihole) to android devices as the Router Advertisement is non configurable on the VF station; since I don't care too much about old IPv4, I thought that it will be easy to simply create a new network with my own router, implications are double NAT for IPv4 and routed IPv6 via prefix-delegation form the VF station. Well found out that the old VF station doesn't allow DHCPv6 PD and shows this message instead: Server support for prefix delegation is not enabled. Sorry buddy. Aight so I'm pounding sand here, decided to call VF support and ask if it would be possible to order the new FritzBox modem/router and get rid of that crappy VF station, I will be getting a new unit next Tuesday! Now if anyone knows, is the DHCPv6 PD properly implemented in the new FritzBox? I know it works on the stock firmware, but you never know how much VF cripples it
