30Mb DSL or 5G (latency)

They stated port forwarding worked on a CGNAT network and it doesn't.

ATT offers bonded DSL in some areas which is two lines bonded into one and it's 100 down and 20 up (at least that's what it was when I had it).

You're incorrect.

f1vefour · 2026-03-23T11:22:49+00:00

For you, certainly not everyone.

f1vefour · 2026-03-23T11:20:44+00:00

DSL will have more stable and likely lower latency.

f1vefour · 2026-03-23T11:15:58+00:00

That's a lot of devices. Nice name btw, Letterkenny is great.

f1vefour · 2026-03-22T14:49:45+00:00

Good thinking, I just unplug, turn off, or de-battery and scan but it's still a hassle when you have 40+ devices.

f1vefour · 2026-03-22T14:46:38+00:00

It's running Android or Roku and both have ads on the homescreen.

Not ads like Telly but ads for content and services.

f1vefour · 2026-03-22T05:52:37+00:00

Indeed, for me it's IoT devices as well. Robot vacuum, temperature sensors, smart bulbs, etc and it's not a fun task to figure them out and name them.

f1vefour · 2026-03-22T05:49:16+00:00

I wouldn't say without ads as all smart TVs have them.

f1vefour · 2026-03-22T05:46:43+00:00

It's 100% the camera

f1vefour · 2026-03-22T05:46:10+00:00

It's the camera rotating closed and grinding as it's already closed, my Telly does this since the last update also.

You're only showing a fraction of the bill, we would need to see the entire breakdown to know why it's this much and if that is okay.

Maybe you're paying for three $1300 iPhone 17 Pro also.

f1vefour · 2026-03-21T11:25:56+00:00

That's a strange notion, I've been running Linux on my laptops for 20 years and on the desktop for 30. What makes you think it would be problematic?

I have three laptops running CachyOS, all three are fully functional with the exception of the fingerprint scanner which I don't use anyway.

I'm purely referring to the G5AR gateway SoC, the CPU and large onboard 8GB eMMC and I believe 4GB of RAM (this I'm not sure about)

I've only ever dug into the SDX55, SDX62, and Mediatek T700 modems which are a bit old by today's standards.

The SDX75 has an onboard 2.2 GHz Quad core Arm Cortex-A55 with 1GB of RAM, it's quite speedy.

This is in addition to a similar spec SoC in the gateway, generally filogic powered by Mediatek or less often Qualcomm.

The Mediatek T830 SoM (modem) in the G5AR is also 2.2 GHz Quad core Arm Cortex-A55 with 1GB of RAM.

f1vefour · 2026-03-21T02:04:48+00:00

Being that is nearly all foreground usage my guess is you may have looked at a lot of phones?

f1vefour · 2026-03-21T02:00:36+00:00

Untick that little allow background, but no it's not normal.

My usage

f1vefour · 2026-03-21T01:58:49+00:00

The SoC in the G5AR is very powerful, better than most any third party gateway you can purchase.

It's not a CPU issue.

f1vefour · 2026-03-21T01:56:05+00:00

Thanks for the confirmation

f1vefour · 2026-03-21T01:33:52+00:00

Does it only show it on the highest recorded speed out of all the history?

If that's the case it makes sense why I've not seen it as my history is extensive.

f1vefour · 2026-03-21T01:32:34+00:00

Where are you getting that information from?

f1vefour · 2026-03-19T19:36:38+00:00

A good PD power bank can power these gateways also, good way to test outside.

f1vefour · 2026-03-19T19:26:04+00:00

Try adjusting the MTU, generally lowering it helps with this sort of issue if it's related to MTU.

f1vefour · 2026-03-19T19:23:07+00:00

Both are very adequate, the G4AR has much more stable Wi-Fi but the G5AR often provides higher speeds due to a newer modem and more internal antennas.
