Disclaimer: I know its a first world problem but WTH do you expect from me.

As of yesterday I have 3 wired internet connections, they all suck in different ways.

Cable Connection: 1.25Gb down, feels like 0 up. Randomly disconnects multiple times throughout the day for a few seconds at a time.
Fiber 1: 1Gb symmetrical, crap IPV6, some backend routes are congested as hell and any lightning fries the OTN.
Fiber 2: 2Gb symmetrical, no IPV6 at all, so many levels of Nat I can't even count them.

After a number of emails and (ugh) phone calls I managed to get a real public (probably dynamic, but whatever) IPv4 address and a bridge mode device. No native IPv6 but HE tunnel seems to be working reasonably OK.

@paul fiber 1 sounds so much like qwest/centurylink (except for me it’s zero ipv6, crap would be an upgrade)

But the 1gb was true symmetric and reliable.

But I’m moving soon after 10+ years with this service and now I’m worried about what I’ll get and what I’ll have to pay.
