Hi,
OpenReach have bungled my FTTP install and it's looking like we'll be a few months before they can get it fixed. My ISP has offered an unlimited data SIM while waiting for it to be fixed, but only provide a 4G modem (without ethernet).
I have my own router (UDM) and I'm a little precious around avoiding things like double-NAT as I host some services from home and work's VPN has a fit about it.
I've had a look and it seems like there's a load of 5g routers listed on eBay, but no clear consensus on whether or not they support passthrough with various firmware versions.
I can get ~150mbit down on my pixel 8 over 5G so speeds should be ok here.
Is there a recommended 5G router with ethernet than can just be put into bridge/passthrough mode? Bonus points if it's one I can install OpenWRT on it so it's not useless once openreach pull their finger out.
Many thanks
