Hello Victor!

23 Oct 21 19:51, you wrote to me:

Perhaps - an educated guess here - Comcast's provided gateway has,
potentially, 4 internal LAN interfaces.  It could be configured with a 5GHz
WiFi subnet, a 2.4GHz one, the GbE ports, and a 'Xfinity Home' port.   I
haven't investigated what the "Home" port is used for, but that may explain
the breaking down of the /64 to /60.  Again, just a theory.

I'd tinker with the gateway to see if that is true; but, I think I've broken
enough things this week.  I just spent the last 48 hours recovering my VM
server from an 'upgrade' that would break my primary network interface on the
server. (The first 36 trying to figure out the problem and 'fix' it, the
remaining 12 hours rebuild and restore.)
