Thursday and Friday is when T-Mobile Home Internet seems the busiest. You would think the weekend, such as Saturday or Sunday, but nope, Thursday and Friday is usually when the network acts odd. I assume this is when it is congested.

I'm deadly damn serious. We've gotta make internet human-scale and understandable again or we're back to treating people like numbers just like in the bad old days.
Many of the #modem/#router/access-point devices #ISPs provide to #consumers are ludicrously overpowered. Each one could serve a self-contained, containerized, secure-by-default, automatically updated Fediverse server selected for security design and low resource demands...
Every individual, family, or friend group having its own #Fedi instance would be a pretty good start.
OFC #WireGuard may have done so since there are some #ISPs that do #CGNAT + #Tunneling i.e. [#L2TP on #DSL is common in #Russia to prevent people from 'blueboxing' by splicing the phone line]...
And in some Corporate setups this may even be desireable to have all the remote workers not able to #P2P as to mitigate #malware propagation...
It's an act of self-defense against an ASN that is a "#RogueISP"...
If you think that's the first time or the only reason #ISPs haven't #DROP'd them or any other network, then you ignore the existance of #Spamhaus for decades.
In fact it's illegal to force customers into such deals and ISPs have to provide customers with all the details.so they can self-setup ahead in time for activation. https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/tkg_2021/__74.html
And I think that's how ut should be.
Needless to say my ISP refuses to offer any modem that would allow me to even setup the /29 subnet I got.
I would rather have the whole thing in one LAN, but I think for that I either have to insert another gateway router between FTTdp and MoCA, or I could use VLAN to connect access points through the same MoCA backbone, but I'd need a managed switch to filter VLAN packets from FTTdp.
@lamp@EU_Commission@BNetzA Also note that some of the lower channels are exolicitly only allowed indoors in #Germamy and that due to S-Band #MILSATCOM & #TETRAPOL, 2,4 GHz WiFi there is only allowed at 10% (10mW) power compared to other #CEPT members.
Translation: They would rather slash the value of their own search results (ie, strip all the actual fact-checked, verified local sources of information) than pay a fair price for news content.
It's like with any commercially licensed content:
If I - like #ALDI - don't want to pay €€€€ in music #licensing fees, I can jist chpose not to play any music at all or evidently only play music not covered by collection agencies.
The federal effort to expand internet access to every U.S. home has taken a major step forward with the announcement of $930 million in grants to shore up connections in dozens of places where significant connectivity gaps persist. Those places include remote parts of Alaska and rural Texas. The so-called middle mile grants are...
"Stop ISPs enforcing use of their own router for VoIP phone lines
With the switch off of PSTN telephone lines in 2025, many ISPs have started to provide VoIP phone lines with their internet supplies. This is great, however, use of these VoIP phone systems is often restricted to only work when used via the ISPs provider router/modem.
The government should enforce ISPs to provide VoIP information so a user, if they wish, can source their own VoIP to analog telephone adaptor allowing them to use a custom third-party router if they desire. Failure to do this creates a vendor lock-in problem, and means switching providers can be immensely difficult and ultimately lead to people sticking with one provider in the fear they will lose their telephone number if they do switch."
