Comment on Why does my ISP sometimes give one IPv6 and another with a different subnet?

One is probably link local the other is global, that’s pretty normal. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_address#Address_Scopes

If your ISP is doing to right IPv6 should be setup for SLAAC, in which case they would give you an entire /64. I don’t use OpenWRT, but I assume it’s showing you the IPv6 /64 for reference, and the /128 of the router in case you need to hit the router using it? If it’s SLAAC your client devices should be getting two IPv6 addresses as well. One is for privacy, that’s the one websites will see when you connect but can’t be hit, and the other is the one you would use to reach your computer from another device.
