Here is the manufacturer's sales page for your router. It has an "IPv6
Ready" sticker on the product picture.

As long as your home networking router can handle IPv6 to IPv4 NAT, then you
won't have to buy anything else.

If you want government to get involved, it would have to force all router
manufacturers to support IPv6 to IPv4 NAT, and provide firmware updates for
all their products that don't currently do so. They would have to be forced
to provide firmware updates for discontinued products as well; how far back?
