This is completely normal for a machine exposed to the internet. In the words of Obi Wan, “Nothing to see here, move along …”
I’ve got a dual-wan UXG-Pro and am lucky enough to have two 1Gbps providers (fiber + cable), plus an employer who reimburses me for both. I have a small wired T-Mobile LTE MiFi device as backup, but never needed it. ($20 a month + usage over 2GB)
My TLDs are:
.lan = management/wired vlan
.mobile = primary wifi
.iot = locked down for iot/home automation devices
.guest = guest wifi
The domain for each is my public .io domain.
Because people get overly emotional about stupid things. Once you get a bit older and more mature, most people grow out of that. But for the ones who never do, they think their “way” is the “right way” and if you don’t do it the “right way” … “you’re wrong.”
At the end of the day, if what you’re using meets your needs, then it’s the right choice. Period. End of story.
The ARM series Macbooks don’t support external GPUs.
This switch runs hot to the touch, even with the default screamer fans. If you swap for Noctuas it’s going to die a rapid death.
Lower your MTU to 1380 and try again.
What are you doing in your “homelab” that needs a $2000 CPU? If you don’t need the PCIe lanes or memory bandwidth, get a Ryzen for 1/8th the cost and a third of the platform power requirement. You’ll get better single core IPC anyway, which is still king.
