If you bought a newer router, it will take open source firmware developers a little time to get ahold of that specific router and make sure the firmware works for it. I got an Asus RT-AC68R somewhat recently and DD-WRT was the same deal. At the time it didn't support 5ghz and a few other features, but I'm sure it does now.
Luckily for me, the Asus routers have a 3rd party firmware developer (Merlin) that works real close with Asus and has kept the firmware as close to default as possible, with additions of his own stuff like an IPv6 firewall built in, as well as other useful stuff.
Anyhow, keep an eye on the development of OpenWRT for your router, it will be fully supported soon most likely.
As far as your issue.. I could possibly see that happening if you don't have native IPv6 (or a tunnel setup, for that matter) and enable IPv6 anyways. What you experienced probably shouldn't happen, but I suppose it could.
Until you actually have native IPv6 or a tunnel setup, I'd keep it disabled as it doesn't do any good for you anyways.
