> 3. Host a website
Where do you host it? (on the device?.. on some machine in your network?.. 
external hosting sources?..)

The website is hosted on a machine that is connected to the Asus RT-N56U by one 
of its ports.

ip6tables is stopping the site from being reached externally. Once ip6tables is 
disabled using ip6tables -F, the site is able to be reached.

So, is it a problem to add the rule to ip6tables to allow tcp traffic on some 
port?..

Not a problem, but the rules keep getting reset when the router is turned off 
even though I ran ip6tables-save.

Can you advise where I should change to get the rules I added to be persistent 
across reboots of the router?

There should be a link at the bottom of the page - "Run after Firewall Rules 
restarted"
First, please check that rule syntax is correct. Then put your rule to text 
area, and click save. That's it.

I wrote a configurable script 
https://gist.github.com/johnnyslee/ca00096d53129c4b9106 to forward all, or just 
as per IPv4 rules. Not sure if it works on interfaces other than 'sitX' (6in4). 
Another flaw is that when setting IP6FORWARD_MODE=2, it cannot detect UPnP 
rules on real time without using some inotify tools to listen on 
/tmp/miniupnpd.leases
