T-mobile 5g gateway works really well in most places. Takes care of router, modem, and internet. My ping is generally around 40.

Uhhm, doesn’t one get a router after subscribing to an ISP’s (Interner service provider’s) internet offer? Those always worked for me

pewgar_seemsimandroid OP ,

i guess so

What you might be referring to is an Internet Service Provider (ISP) and less likely a router. They kind of work together but are different.

$325?!

Fucking what? For that you could get 10G fiber, but WWHHYYY?

I have a literal server rack in my laundry room running proxmox hypervisor and multiple self-hosted services, and even at that I only have 1G service and feel like I’m getting anally raped paying $110/mo for that.

And what new college grad has $50k to drop on a router, of all things?

etchinghillside ,

Starlink and an LTE connection has me around this price point.

You are being ripped off, 10g sonic is like $60.

There are better ones out there, but this is a solid option.
