This post is about how the R2 and Netduma Routers, can mitigate issues when it comes to 5G Home Internet.

For starters, without the R2 and being directly connected to the HUB/Modem of the 5G via PC, Ethernet. There seem to be constant packet drop every 2–3 minutes, I had noticed. I plugged the R2 into the 5G and PC behind R2, no more minutes of packet loss. You will still have packet loss but every few hours.

Bufferbloat is a major problem with any service but a major problem with 5G Home Internet. As it's a bit different from dealing with Fiber/Cable/DSL internet. But, You will most likely need settings for gaming and casual. Below is my troubleshooting process in getting right settings. Not the best, but better than none at all.

My pingplotter chart of my Spectrum Internet on the left before 6:00pm and 5G Home Internet on the right. You can see the packet loss on the right happening, but then after plugging in R2. No More.

we can compare it to a wifi connection, it all depends on the environment, the distance from the signal and all the disturbances between the signal and the box5G!
The congestion load at peak hours is also a factor of instability...
