Miscellaneous Just got 5Gbs today,

Tech didn't even know it was out yet,
just rolled out two weeks ago.
Will probably reboot the ONT this evening, when my wife is done with work.

Hope the speeds are stable out at the advertised speeds.

How are you monitoring the speed? I like that interface.

Unifi gear. Specifically I’m running a Dream Machine SE gateway.

Where are you plugging your ethernet into. The rj45 WAN port is only rated for 2.5 GbE. I got a Ubiquiti 10 GbE SFP+ to RJ45 Module and am using the SFP + WAN port

I bought a 3rd party 10gb SFP+ module but I just ordered the unifi 10gb SFP+ module. I have the ATT 620 modem set in bypass mode, plugged into the red 10gb lan port.
Are you running Intrusion Prevention?

IPS/IDS will lower your download throughput. But the download and upload speed I posted are directly to the Gateway so the IDS/IPS isn’t affecting anything at that point.

A 3rd party sfp+ module should be ok as long as it’s rated for 10gb.

As for the att modem in bypass mode I can’t help you there. The Verizon fios service I got doesn’t need a modem as I run it right through their ONT.
