This looks somewhat promising:

~$200

If you want something cheaper, this:

http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/R6300V2/R6300v2_DS_20Jun13.pdf
is about $100.

I haven=92t tried either of these myself yet, but other Netgear home =
products with IPv6 support have worked reasonably well in my experience =
and these are newer generation and do list IPv6 support in their data =
sheets.

There may be cheaper models. I haven=92t done any sort of thorough =
investigation.

Of course the Apple Airport Express and Airport Extreme models also have =
802.11ac support and known good IPv6 implementations.
