If the home hub 2 uses IPv6 on the WAN side (which I'm fairly sure it does) then Web Access will no longer work.

Web access can only be done over a IPv4 connection. Buffalo have been aware of the limitation for over a decade and never implemented a fix.

Use something like https://test-ipv6.com/ to check.
