Well you could accept the default generated one, or set it to fe80::1 manually. Don’t most good routers now have a DNS server in? So you could make it router.local or something?
I think some even by default make a DNS entry call router.local or similar pointing to themselves. This isn’t a real problem and if IPv6 were adopted fully, then all routers would likely come with something like this setup anyway.

mDNS (.local) is a fairly new thing, and not everything supports it well unfortunately.
DNS never has problems and always works. /s
And neither does DHCP.
shouldn’t fe80::1 always just work if IPv6 is enabled?
If you set the ip of the router to fe80::1 then anything directly connected should be fine to connect using that address.
