If DHCPv6 is used to request Prefix Delegation (PD), AAISP reply with one /64 block. OpenWrt uses this to set the LAN address and netmask, and then enables routing from '''just this block''' from LAN to WAN. Any other /64 blocks routed to you won't be able to send packets to the Internet. |

* Configure manually, not using DHCPv6 |
* Configure IPv6 on the WAN manually, not using DHCPv6 |

* Configure automatically, |
* Configure automatically with DHCPv6, and add the missing route(s) |
