Did you have to request specific equipment to get a static or semi-static IPv4 like you get with cable? Did it cost extra?

I don’t think it’s optional. I think that’s what separates home internet from business internet. Could someone that has this service confirm?

$70, not $50. And this breaks the deal: https://www.t-mobile.com/business/filtering

Not really usable at home.

Fucking hate all the coax providers. Absolute monopoly granted to them in insane. I’m stuck with an even worse one - Spectrum. No other options where I live. Tmo home internet is cheaper but it’s not reliable enough despite a $400 antenna pointed directly at their tower. And CGNAT breaks a ton of shit.

All this instead of just hiring a few senior devs to contribute to any of the number of existing open source projects that are already infinitely better than any new thing they will come up with.

I understand. I was replying to how gov agencies would find out. Any digital transmission is basically “static” to an analog receiver.

A high powered antenna that transmits a lot of “static” would be a dead giveaway.
