>- Some ISPs do not offer prefix delegation, so I have to use weird hacks like NDP proxying (I use ndppd for this).

Do you mean your ISP does not give you a larger block than a /64 ? If so, name and shame please. Otherwise, you don't need your ISP to support prefix delegation. If they give you a larger block than a /64 then your router is the one that delegates prefixes within your LAN.

I don't know what ISP the OP is using, but Singtel did exactly this. I got a /64 with 6rd. It was quite horrible and the main reason I switched ISP's. Now I have a static /48, which is what all ISP's should be doing in my opinion.

They only announce a /64 prefix via RA (with no DHCPv6 or DHCPv6-PD), so address assignments are via SLAAC. For that ISP (Wave G), I use NDP proxying to allow the LAN side to utilize those addresses as well.

That is amazingly shitty.

Yes, their IPv6 support has been mediocre.

The big advantage to Wave G is that they have symmetrical gigabit download/upload rates. Comcast, on the other hand, provides gigabit download rates but ~30-40Mbit upload rates.
