The network prefix length should always be 64, unless you know exactly
what you are doing.

Using 2000::/3 instead of default or ::/0 for the default global unicast
route was only necessary on very old (2.4 ?) kernels.

The MTU 1480 suggests that there is some 6in4 tunnel encapsulation on
the path and one node does not do its job properly. It could be either :

- the remote tunnel endpoint has IPv6 MTU set to 1480 but does not send
ICMPv6 "packet too big" when dropping too big a packet ;
- the server or a node before it drops ICMPv6 "packet too big" ;
- the remote tunnel endpoint has IPv6 MTU set to 1500 but does not
fragment properly 6in4 datagrams ;
- some node on the path drops 6in4 fragments ;
- the local tunnel endpoint does not reassemble properly 6in4 fragments

or many more causes.
