    ONT Through Switch

    I am up and running now. Fiber -> ONT -> Modem (in bridge mode) -> Router -> various patch panel terminals -> switch -> devices

    ONT Through Switch

    I think it is an Arris Bgw210 The switch didn't need to be there. I was having some trouble getting it set up (I had bad cables from the wall to my computers and one of my rj45 ports on the wall is missing a pin so it would tone but not carry data), so I think at one point I was just plugging...

    ONT Through Switch

    Hey All, I had my AT&T fiber setup this way: Fiber (from street) -> ONT -> switch -> modem -> router I was getting 800mbps down on my machines behind the router. I had the AT&T tech come in today to make sure I set it up properly and they said that it shouldn't have worked at all, and was...

    Small Network Packet Loss

    I swapped the cable and ran pingplotter for 20 minutes and zero lost packets in the 20ish minutes I ran it. Granted it was after working hours. I will run it again during the day tomorrow. I realized the cable I am using is easily 15 years old, likely older. Perhaps it's time I buy a fresh...

    Small Network Packet Loss

    Yeah I may have to turn routing/NAT back on the ATT Modem to fix Zoom. Anytime the ATT modem is routing though is when I had other issues. Not getting fired due to my inability to contribute to meetings though is probably more important :(. I will see if I can address the packet loss via new...

    Small Network Packet Loss

    I originally had double nat. It was mostly fine but Stadia controller would desync every 10 minutes or so, which finally became so infuriating that I looked for solutions. The routing capability on the ATT router ostensibly was to blame.

    Small Network Packet Loss

    Yeah it definitely looks like it. I will do that and re-test. It is very strange that other than a small hiccup initially it was fine for like 6 minutes before dropping a ton.

    Small Network Packet Loss

    I really don't know what I am doing with PingPlotter, but I found a small guide on testing Zoom. I dropped a couple packets at first on my Router/Modem and then it was fine for a while, then towards the end it was dropping a ton of packets.

    Small Network Packet Loss

    I can confirm the zoom issues seem to be unrelated to the Wifi setup itself. I had multiple freezes and disconnects during a meeting while I was connected to the router via Ethernet. After zoom reconnected I would run a speed test and get around 800 Mbps. I guess I am going to call AT&T...

    Small Network Packet Loss

    Interestingly, we have had similar issues since we got the service, but they seemed to pick up when I turned IP Passthrough on and hooked up my own router. I believe it is fiber based. At least fiber to the apartment, and then the modem is hooked up to the wall via copper.

    Small Network Packet Loss

    Curious, what does setting 2.4 to 20Mhz do? Speed test results from one machine. ATT's website is not loading for me for some reason so I can't run their speed test, but again its never been anything but 1Gbps Network Speed (mbps) 2.4 Ghz no load 110 5ghz no load 460 2.4ghz no load...

    Speed test is largely the same between wired and wireless. 2.4ghz I think is about half of the speed as 5ghz. I can't really test the Zoom issues since they happen when i am in meetings but I can probably test discord, so I will give that a shot tonight if I can.

    Small Network Packet Loss

    Hey All, Hope this is the right spot for this. Problem I am experiencing packet loss on my small wireless network. Symptoms include Discord video dropping quality to minimum, Youtube buffering quite a bit, Zoom sporadically "freezing". The last one is particularly frustrating when I am...
