Ah, now I'm following. I only have U-verse internet, but someone who has U-verse double or triple play might be able use a computer as a gateway between a set-top-box and the RG, and run wireshark.

Sorry to respond to such an old post but I was curious what speeds you get using https://fast.com/

I was using speedtest.net and it was testing off ATT's server so I was getting 950 mbps dl and ul speeds but when testing off external servers, I was getting speeds ranging from 1 - 10 mbps. And I believe it because I can't even stream a 1080p video without buffering every 3 seconds.

You need one of these if the cord plugs into the green broadband port on the back of the modem.

You need one of these if the cord plugs into the red ONT port on the back of the modem.

The $70 vs. $90 price can vary even within a single neighborhood. I've checked prices that AT&T is offering for a few addresses around my house. Most locations are $70 for gigapower, but my house is $90 per month.

For TV, my choice was a one time purchase of this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003P966FG/ref=psdc_172665_t2_B00009W3BW . Along with netflix, this is enough, imo.

I have an NVG-599 that did not cut it in the wireless department so I added two of these and turned off the gateway's wireless.

No need to add a router when all you need is a WAP.

This is the cable I'm using. I've wired it directly to both the X1 and PS4 and they work fine afterwards so you might be right in that I've got a defective switch. It's either that or something in the settings of the gateway that I haven't set correctly.

I run my own router behind the Uverse RG. Remember that since it's AT&T's property that you're leasing, they can do whatever they want remotely. They've pushed firmware updates to my RG that have completely obliterated my wifi and firewall settings. Maybe they're not supposed to reset it, but they have, more than once. If you run your own router, it's under YOUR control.

Instead of the router you linked, I'd suggest this one. It's what I have, and I get great coverage and throughput.

Thanks man. I will find out what my current model is when I get home and post the info here. I found this guide after some googling. Do you find the guide to be adequate?

I have to do a wireless connection because I can't move the the router/modem to another location. I decided on this router. It will work with AT&T's router/modem in "bridge" mode right?

You need one of these if they can't or won't relocate the modem/gateway. Some techs carry them on their trucks. http://www.amazon.com/Netgear-AC750-Dual-Band-Extender-EX3700-100NAS/dp/B00R92CL5E/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1457492473&sr=8-4&keywords=netgear+wi+fi+range+extender

I don't think so. You really should get dual band wi-fi. The Pace is only wireless N. You can get a modem/router combo that has that built in like...
