IPv6 Java Server HELP

I recently switched to Starlink and am hoping for advice on if it's possible to run a Java server on IPv6 using Starlink. I used to run one fine on IPv4 using a Telstra smart modem gen 2 so I have a bit of knowledge but am not quite an expert. Note the Telstra modem has a separate option to portforward IPv6 or IPv4 in the settings and I set it up as shown in the attachment (I just selected TCP/UDP but it also has an ICMPv6 option)

I have a gen 3 Starlink router which is also connected by cable to my Telstra modem which gives me an IPv6 when I connect to it. I was advised to use bypass mode on the Starlink router to portforward using the Telstra modem however when I do this the Telstra modem just says IPv6 disconnected and does not give me one.

It also said I should be able to still portforward without using bypass mode and just connecting to the Telstra modem so I tried that and I was able to start the server and connect to it using [IPv6]:25565 on any device on the same network but I couldn't connect to it when I tried using my hotspot (which does also give an IPv6) with the connection just timing out. Help would be much appreciated as I am not sure what else I can try, if you need any extra info to help let me know and I can provide screenshots etc... thanks
