You have a default route from host1 to the gateway
(fec0::e2d2:50:fcb1:de7b)?
How did you exactly configure this?
How did you route the packets on the router itself? Did you just
assign the ip address (fec0::e2d2:50:fcb1:de7b/80) to the
interface and have the kernel add the route itself? Or did you
manualy have to add a route?

It stops working about 90 seconds after the last packet you send?
Then you send 1 packet from the other side (the router?) and it
starts working again?
If that is the case, it really sounds like the neighbour
discovery isn't working and it can't get the MAC address for it.
