Can't Get My ASUS RT-N66U Router Configured

I am once again attempting to configure IPv6; my previous attempts with aiccu and AYIYA were unsuccessful. I am attempting to use the IPv6 settings in my ASUS RT-N66U router. I have changed my tunnel type to "static" (using up all of my credits to do so) with my correct IP address specified. On the RT-N66U (which is running 3.0.0.4.376_3861 firmware) I have "Connection Type - 'Tunnel 6in4'"; for "Server IPv4 address" and "Server IPv6" address I have the values from 'POP IPv4' and 'POP IPv6' from my tunnel information page; for "Client IPv6 address" I have the value from "Your IPv6" on the info page; "IPv6 Prefix Length" is '64'; "Tunnel MTU" is '1280' and "Tunnel TTL" is '64'. In the "IPv6 LAN Setting" dialog I have "LAN Prefix Length" blank and "LAN IPv6 Prefix" is the value of 'IPv6 Prefix' from my tunnel information page; it is the same as the POP IPv6 address with the addition of a '/64' at the end. There is a "LAN IPv6 Address" field which is automatically filled in by the router software; it reads '3.0.0.4.376_3861'. In the "IPv6 DNS Setting" dialog I have the public access addresses for the Google IPv6 DNS servers.
My problem is probably something very simple, but I have read through the FAQs and tried to search for information on my router without much luck. I'm hoping someone here can help me figure out what I'm doing wrong.
Additional info: The RT-N66U is DMZ'd behind an AT&T U-Verse residential gateway. Traceroute follows:

I've never used traceroute before, but that doesn't seem to say much. Here's a ping:

Messed up a copy and paste on that LAN IPv6 address; seems that Copy doesn't work on that field. The actual value is '::4835:a67f:f00:0:0:1'

I think I'm getting closer. I found another forum post which showed me some things I was doing wrong. I removed the '1/64' at the end of the "LAN IPv6 Prefix" entry and set the "LAN Prefix Length" to 64. Now it looks as though my machines are getting a good IPv6 address from the router. However, I still don't have any connectivity. I have the IPv6 firewall (built into the router firmware) enabled and as best I can see the AVG firewall on my Windows computer is set to allow IPv6 access. I'm just showing "No Internet Access" on my Windows (8.1) Ethernet Status.
