Comment on Port Forwarding Alternative?

Not what you’re asking but since it’s been covered well:
Buy your own cable modem and put your own firewall behind it. Not only will this save you money in the long run, you’ll also have no issues with things like port forwarding. I use Comcast/Xfinity with a docsis3.1 cable modem + a decent firewall and it’s a good way to go.

Don’t they require their gateway device for the faster tiers?

I’m on 1.2gbps with my own modem… That’s the fastest available at my address.

What’s your upload? Cause I want that 200 with my S33 but I didn’t think they allowed it.

Sadly about 50. But that’s all my plan allows at my address so not a hardware issue.
