I once setup MikroTik routers... they were cool, but the ipv6 implementation required manual intervention - this is not something you want with an isp that dynamically rotates their ipv6 addresses often. Once I discovered pfSense/OPNSense, it was so much better in configurability and ease of upgrade, as those OSses are FreeBSD-based and designed to run on PCs.

My ISP doesn't support IPv6, so I haven't needed to touch that, but we'll be getting muni fiber soon-ish (they claim the next year or two), so that could change. I'll definitely think about upgrading to pfSense or something when that happens.
