   Hello Victor,

   I think #3 comes closest.   
      
   I am not sure about the /64 for the link. The only visible part of the link is   
   the IPv6 WAN address of the router. It is outside the /56 assigned to the   
   user, the link may just use a /128.   
      
   The modem/router supplied by the ISP assigns one /64 for the LAN and another   
   /64 for the guest network. More /64 out  of the /56 can be obtained by   
   connecting extra routers.   
      
   For IPv6 one must use the modem/router from the provider. When the   
   modem/router from the provider is set in bridge mode, the connection becomes   
   IPv4 only.   
      
   My provider is Ziggo. A daughter from Liberty Global.   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
