not really clear what you’re asking for, to be honest.

So it doesn’t matter per se whether it’s a 4g router, other than the fact that a lot of those services won’t give you a publicly routable IP. Is this device a windows or Mac device? You can use things like Chrome remote desktop to completely obviate the need for anything particularly fancy.

Most servers out there can’t actually give you that much bandwidth. In fact if you don’t have a very specific reason for that plan, I’d downgrade if it’ll save you money.

I’d bet money you have an ethernet link somewhere that’s only negotiating at 100 mbps. That’s nearly always the case when speed tests. Top out in the 90 mbps range.

Totally normal. They detected egress and needed to correct it.

Do you plan to have a plex server and use transcoding? If so, the i3 is probably the best call. If not, I’d go with the ryzen. And in fairness I’ve heard people saying that and transcodes fine on plex despite not being supported.

The crazy thing is that’s not even really true. RDNA2 competed extremely well with Ampere. In Raster it was generally slightly better than its direct competition, and excluding the insanity of Covid and supply shortages, it was always cheaper as well.

I paid $360 for my 6700xt in Dec 2022. Now 6700xt’s are routinely like $300 on sale. The equivalent from Nvidia is… what? The 4060ti is slightly faster but only has 8gb of VRAM, and launched at $400 fucking dollars. The 4060ti 16gb is the same performance with more VRAM and launched at $500 fucking dollars.

At this point what’s propping up Nvidia is unfathomable levels of mind share. The product stack doesn’t actually deserve to sell anywhere near as well as it is currently.

It’s certainly not unheard of in the tech world for this to happen. Look at Apple releasing a fucking $1600 MBP with 8gb of RAM, and then trying to gaslight their customers into believing it’s better than it is, like they aren’t being ripped off. Shit’s absurd, but the average consumer is a pre-programmed midwit that relies almost entirely on brand loyalty to make their purchasing decisions.

And while I’m not super impressed with RDNA3 at launch, it’s significantly better as the prices slowly creep down. I kind of figure the 7800xt will slowly creep down towards $450 being a normal price, and the 7700xt will probably creep under $400.

The 7600, when priced below 250, especially in the low 200’s, like $220-230, is fantastic value as well.

Even at the high end, the 7900xt at $700-750 is a solid buy, and the 7900xt at $900 or less is very good as well.

Lovelace is fantastic from a technical perspective, but Nvidia outdid their own previous records for greed when it comes to the product stack and the pricing.

This almost certainly varies from country to country, provider to provider. Why not just look up the ones you’re interested in? No blanket answer here is going to be guaranteed accurate.

This link doesn’t help us, it just takes us a generic Xfinity page asking for our address and the internet speed that we have. That said, I believe your modem is on the approved device list.

GENTLEMEN - WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? … I CANNOT GET THE PROMISED SPPED of 1+ Gbps. I can only get 498Kbps. The Tech guy came and tried to sell me a Modem … why? …

You have a comment in the thread clarifying 498mbps, right? So is that what you’re getting wireless, or wired? If wired, that could be an issue. If wireless, it’s actually fantastic.

Also, we can’t see the pictures you tried to link. Not sure what you mean by intermittent services. You need to provide more detail for help in that regard, I think.
