Was doing a wireshark capture of my router's WAN interface and in the router advertisement packets there is 2 /64 prefixes given in the RA packet. Will probably try tonight when no one in the house is using the network

If you are seeing prefixes similar to the one's described here: https://jamesmacwhite.medium.com/have-virgin-media-enabled-ipv6-sort-of-9443e5e855d

They have been present for a while, I asked someone at Liberty Global and they said it's nothing new.

One of them is a management network the other you technically can configure an IPv6 address within and get connectivity, but you won't be able to use prefix delegation as it's deliberately filtered out. You'd have to manually provision an IPv6 address within the correct subnet to use it.
