Same here. The first ATT tech did put some sort of a heat shrink last August but this second ATT tech didn't. Not even cut the strands of protective fiber so I have to cut it myself with a nail cutter. I told him about not cutting the fiber cable short so I have enough to work around if I need to move it into my Keystone wall plate. He cut it short anyway. Might need to pull several inches of fiber from the outside junction box & apply a sealant tape that I used for ham radio antennas on the connector. I just need to look for it.
So Id be better off snagging this https://www.bestbuy.com/site/tp-link-archer-ax11000-tri-band-wi-fi-6-router-black-red/6389648.p?skuId=6389648&ref=212&loc=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI_ujNnYSs-wIVw_TjBx3k6QmhEAQYASABEgJyE_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
Than this? (What my buddy recommended) https://www.amazon.com/Linksys-MR7500-Hydra-Tri-Band-Router/dp/B09DRDWXWF/ref=sr_1_11_mod_primary_new?crid=LB70GAH5MLRO&keywords=wifi+6e&qid=1657475542&s=electronics&sbo=RZvfv%2F%2FHxDF%2BO5021pAnSA%3D%3D&sprefix=wifi+6e%2Celec...
I don't know what you tell you. This isn't an AT&T specific thing, this is a networking implementation common across all network subnets worldwide. It's part of TCP/IP. See here: https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/subnet-cheat-sheet-24-subnet-mask-30-26-27-29-and-other-ip-address-cidr-network-references/
In a /29 IP address block there are 8 available IP addresses, 1 is reserved as the network address, and 1 is the broadcast address, leaving 6 usable. And you then of course need a router so your devices have _some way_ of communicating with the network, so that leaves 5.
Worth noting, that _you are actually getting all 8_ - noone else can be assigned those other 3 IP addresses, they're required by network infrastructure for AT&T (and the rest of the internet) to know how to communicate with your network. Without those 3 setup, your other 5 wouldn't be usable.

something like this though I haven't tried this particular one.
I've got this and it's really easy to setup.
Just need to change some options on your router/modem combo you can google. It's a bit pricier though, but it's worth for no hassle of dealing with router. It comes with software to setup the router and gives you instructions and you can manage everything from your phone
To make your life easier, getting a multi-gig unmanaged switch is probably the path with least resistance: https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-TL-SG105-M2-Multi-Gigabit-Wall-Mount-Protection/dp/B09CYNHL4S/
No, all you need are some MOCA adapters.
More information can be found at r/HomeNetworking.
MoCA will work fine assuming the coax is unused. You probably have all your coax in the house going to one splitter. You'll want to disconnect the rooms with MoCA adapters and connect them via coupler.

MoCA isn't cheap though. If you've already experimented running ethernet I'd try to make that option work, maybe with a different higher quality cable.
Forgive the age of the reply but FWIW using Mullvad, qBT has ~860 connected peers but only has 44 entries in the NAT table (about half of them being that UDP/123XX "spam") on a 320 (and 149/8K housewide).
It's just a matter of buying the right equipment. This AP will do a theoretical throughput of 3.6 gbps and has a 2.5 gbe port. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08PW34WPX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1
I never claimed to get any particular performance myself, I'm just pointing out that your claim that wifi 6 "doesn't do" gigabit speeds is blatantly false.
Get the length you need, run it from the box outside or from the wall plate inside to wherever you need. It's fiber - don't worry about distance.

The fiber cable in the second link had the coupler and is how I extended my att fiber and moved the ont into the house wire structure panel.
you could try something like this, that sends ethernet over the power line https://www.amazon.com/Powerline-Ethernet-Adapter-Extender-TP-Link/dp/B084CZMYNM/ref=sr\_1\_3?crid=7PFWJ6I16FRE&keywords=powerline+network&qid=1647359577&sprefix=power+line+network%2Caps%2C81&sr=8-3

I am trying to avoid that right now. I wanted to run the connection outside from where I want the router setup...before I get AT&T Fiber...running this cable outside from my research will work yes for what AT&T installs? - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08234L6RS/ref=ox_sc_saved_image_1?smid=ACADTG0VI9UEV&psc=1
Or do you recommend I just put a conduit to where I need them to put the cable and let them deal with it?
Just got it installed this weekend. Patch from the outlet to the modem is a SC to SC fiber patch cord.
I used the following to relocate the modem: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08QDRKWCL?psc=1&ref=ppx\_yo2\_dt\_b\_product\_details
Never use Wi-Fi if you can run wire. If it’s for your TV or gaming especially. If you can’t run Ethernet look into something like this:

Found an alternative to port forwarding, playit.gg
Still would like to know about not being able to portforward but in the meantime, I'm able to host my own server and have people outside my LAN connect with no issues.
Based on the Amazon’s link above I extended my fiber and moved the ONT into the structured panel. :). Ready for mgig and the new gateway once I give up my gateway replacement or bypass.
Ordered this to replace the base and protect the fiber handoff at the demarc.
