The design router is rubbish... most people put their networking stuff away anyway

tbh... isn't the RT-N76 what the RT-N16 should have been? with 5GHz?

Asus do those things so you spend all your money in "unfinished" routers Other way you would buy 1 router instead of 2 or 3

Is this asus getting fed up with broadcom?
The ralink cpu seems impressive, it'll probably outperform the RT-N16 by the looks of it.
apart from the wifi obviously... antennas like that are just horrible! why no build in regular wire antennas

Yes, Ralink CPU should outperform RT-N16 and RT-N76U (it's the same 533MHZ CPU) But im hopping that RT-N76U brings a new kernel version that supports EXT4 FS and other features.

Can you tell me if this model supports IPv6? Can you run IPv6 to IPv4 tunneling on it?

Yes it supports IPv6 and yes it supports IPv6 to IPv4 tunneling for sure.
It's almost supported to Third Party FW so it will support almost everything :P

ipv6 is software related, ususally, most routers handle ip packets on software level rather than physical level. So even if asus doesn't include it, still you'd have a chance with the hard working developers who add some extra patches
