There is this now https://mikrotik.com/product/atl_5g_r16
That device is bafflingly LTE cat20 with 2Gbps downlink, and then has LAN connectivity only through a single 1Gbps ethernet port. Actually, it seems one of the advantages of the new Ubiquiti devices over Teltonika/Mikrotik/Gl.iNet is that they actually have 10 Gbps SFP+ and 2.5 Gbps ethernet ports.

They said the same thing about 40G but hey, I've loved it for bridging the gap between my two (10G and 100G, respectively) Mikrotik switches. You can have a dozen Gigabit ports, as well as up to four true 10G devices on your aggregation switch, and neither would be bottlenecked by traffic to and from the backside. This has been a massive boon. However, when it comes to 2.5G, I struggle to find one good reason to use…
> However, when it comes to 2.5G, I struggle to find one good reason to use it; such a tiny step-up in bandwidth, and for what? Portability and heat. You can get a small USB 2.5G adapter that produces negligible heat, but a Thunderbolt 10G adapter is large and produces a substantial amount of heat. I use 10G at home, but the adapter I throw into my laptop bag is a tiny 2.5G adapter.
There's of course fiber too...

Put it in a wooden box with a generator outside of it and you are good to go.
That’s got its own set of issues, but more importantly would you call that working effortlessly?
Unless you count hiring someone to do it for you.
The problem I have seen is when I need it most, due to a rare fiber internet outage, so does everyone else nearby and cellular data becomes saturated and unusable.

Unifi is a bit different than Apple to me. Ubiquiti is one of the few companies doing prosumer hardware - and doing it extremely well. They give you access to advanced, raw configurations without necessarily having to go "full enterprise" deployment. They also have solutions for just about everything. That being said, I generally have moved towards other Wifi solutions as I've grown weary of tweaking Ubiquiti all of…
What do you recommend as an alternative?
Wire still wins - especially for backhauls between endpoint. However, it’s really nice being able to stick an AP anywhere you have an outlet to extend the range. I have a few outdoor devices (speakers, lights, TV) that daisy chain though APs while getting just good enough performance for what I need.

Thank you, I could have sworn I had that active, but for some reason it was "audio only".
The about:config settings which you can look up: media.autoplay.blocking_policy media.autoplay.default I have mine set to 2 and 5 respectively.
I am confused, this is just a 5G router right? Like the 5 year old Huawei CPE Pro 2 but with wifi7, poe and eSim? [1] https://consumer.huawei.com/en/routers/5g-cpe-pro-2/
That was available 5 years ago?

FWIW, blocking policy on 2 blocks (at least some, Qobuz for me) streaming sites and bandcamp (bandcamp being the more problematic one as every band is on their own subdomain and you can’t (I think) just allow all of them).

Teltonika also has started to create a similar solution but it is not in the same level just yet.
