Stateless autoconfiguration (as you're using with the router
advertisements) is intended to work with /64's only.

If you can't get more than a /64 from your current provider (and it's
quite possible that they're doing a free.fr-style setup so you can *only*
have a /64 for the whole connection) then you'll either need a provider
offering a larger address space (he.net and sixxs can do this via
tunnels) or some other way to assign addresses to hosts so you can
subnet instead (simplest being static addressing).

I'd go for the tunnel, at least while learning. It's much simpler than
subnetting and trying to use protocols designed around /64 with some other
mask length.

Das ist normal.
