Are you sure about this? It’s in the rfc from like 1998 that ISPs should allow customers to sla for larger prefixes. I don’t know a single US isp that doesn’t allow at least a 56.

IPv6 is pointless and still a security risk but I’m guessing you’re misconfiguring something.

Yup, Liberty Global (also known as UPC) in Europe.

Assigning only /64 & no DHCP-PD. There's not much to misconfigure, since in IPv6 you have to use their router and they are pushing the config.

And since you have only /64, you cannot put another router behind theirs.

Which of course goes against what RIPE is saying:

> The following sections explain why /48 and /56 are the recommended prefix assignment sizes for end customers.

* https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-690/#4-2--prefix...

And it's not like it's a new policy:

> RIPE-690 outlines best current operational practices for the assignment of IPv6 prefixes (i.e. a block of IPv6 addresses) for end-users, as making wrong choices when designing an IPv6 network will eventually have negative implications for deployment and require further effort such as renumbering when the network is already in operation. In particular, assigning IPv6 prefixes longer than /56 to residential customers is strongly discouraged, with /48 recommended for business customers. This will allow plenty of space for future expansion and sub-netting without the need for renumbering, whilst persistent prefixes (i.e. static) should be highly preferred for simplicity, stability and cost reasons.

Yes, a lot of ISPs do this even after I try to write to them explaining why it doesn't make sense. My ISP is Airtel in India, they very recently started assigning IPv6 at all but it's a single /64 only.

The other big one I know, Jio (from Reliance) also offers just a single /64.
