I have a wireguard VPN set up for a friend where they can remotely connect to access frigate and I can remotely connect to fix things when needed. They are considering switching to tmobile buisness as their ISP since spectrum is screwing them on price, tmobile’s minimum is twice as fast as spectrum while still being a lower price, and AT&T can’t be convinced their small business isnt a residential duplex or an apartment.

Tmobile offers the Inseego FX4100 gateway which does have an IP passthru option, so my question becomes will that work to wireguard in with their current router/firewall solution hosting the other end of that and just passing packets through the Inseego, or is that just not possible without tailscale due to CGNAT?

    since spectrum is screwing them on price

    In my locale, Spectrum is considered a utility much like electricity, water, or any other utility you are accustomed to. They made it that way because a long while ago, Spectrum contracted with the authorities having jurisdiction, to be the sole provider of internet to all the schools in this area. There is a complaint form on our city’s webpage. Still, about the only way to make the pricing all work in your favor is to be the loudest complainer, which is a pretty shitty business model.
