| Model | BT Home Hub 5A |
| Architecture | xRX200 rev 1.2 |
| Firmware Version | OpenWrt 21.02.1 r16325-88151b8303 / LuCI openwrt-21.02 branch git-21.295.67054-13df80d |
| Kernel Version | 5.4.154 |
Description:
Within the documentation and config files of stubby and the OpenWrt instructions you use the address 0::1 for the IPv6 local loopback address (which does work) but I cannot find anywhere else that uses this form, everyone uses ::1
I think these instances should be changed to keep things easier to read unless there is a technical reason for this.
These are a few that I found
README.md (several occurances)

I have posted this over at getdnsapi/stubby aswell ****
