I don’t know anything about socat. Noob in that area.

cool socat is preinstalled

start a screen using

screen -S socat

then do this on the screen

socat TCP6-LISTEN:4000,fork TCP:127.0.0.1:4000

detach from screen using Ctrl+D

then try accessing the router ip on port 4000 from LAN Side.

The whole router froze and had to be reset using recovery.

hmm weird try

socat TCP6-LISTEN:40005,fork TCP:127.0.0.1:4000


and access router on IPv6 from lan side on port 40005

Borked. Unresponsive again. I will install latest beta and try again tomorrow.

this is weird i tried it on my debian server and it seemed to work. not sure why its not working with urs (ofc its a diff architecture and firmware but still).

Ok I installed the latest beta but the ssh session freezes and I am unable to access router at http://[ipv6address]:40005

Maybe it's beyond my scope 🙁
