Yes, they had given me a /64 back then, while I had requested a /56 range. They said anything more than /64 would be chargeable. I was pretty content with what I had and didn't want to go through the hassle of dealing with them.
 
Observing drastically reduced and erratic speeds since yesterday, and unsure if they have made any changes to my account yet. I have not been given PPPoE credentials, but somehow speeds that were always near or over 400 Mbps (390-410) are consistently erratic now (250-350). Upload seems rather unaffected, but latencies seem to have increased.
 
@f0r3he4d you can't do anything about them as I was going through all these bad experience with Alliance from 2013, and I still can remember that once I've threatened them for legal action not for giving desired speed in 2018/19 first their tone was mild, executive told me that "Sir it's up to 100 mbps , not exactly, so around 25/30ish is fine in rush hours like evening" , when I told them you cheated customer by false advertising I gonna complaint in Consumer forum against your brand he just told we used to hear these kind of threatening thousand times a day and no one can do anything as local govt has support for us, after that I switched to Jio and then now Airtel fiber
 
For an inexplicable reason, the ability to quote a post or even a snippet of text is unavailable to me, so this is in response to post number 6.

okay couple of more updates since yesterday. Me being on the call for hours on end with multiple reps of their seems to have fixed the bandwidth limits on ipv6 routes so yay.(or maybe it was the undersea cable afterall).
