Frontier IPv6 Prefix Delegation - AS5650

Hi,

Anyone here have a knowledgeable contact at Frontier? I’m on a residential
fiber connection and recently started getting a v6 delegation (yay!) but
they’re only handing out /64s. Obviously this doesn’t allow for proper
subnetting, and forces me to use NPTv6 / ULA if I want to do things
“properly”, and devices essentially ignoring their v6 interface. This also
seems to be in conflict with RFC 6177 and seems to somewhat defeat the
purpose of v6.

Any way to get a /56 or more? Support is clueless.

Thanks!
Chris
