I have heard rumours that Zen is not the Zen of old any more, another option is IDNet or Uno, one thing besides the poor customer service with TT that concerns me is the data leaks that seem to happen every now and then.
PC has so much more potential, you can emulate older consoles, get games cheaper/free, all the other windows app as well, the only reason to go console is for the exclusives of which there aren't many that make it worth it nowadays imo.
If you want to load balance them, connect FTTC and 4G modems to a Pfsense router, otherwise look at Draytek/Asus for a router with 4G failover option, phones with Android 11+ can do reverse USB-C ethernet tethering.
I have a suspicion that $2000 will become £2000 especially if that UK online sales tax passes.
As a 3090 owner I can't see much benefit if it's just 20-30% extra.
I'd OC that 2500k to 4.4Ghz+ (get a Hyper212 fan or similar), regarding GPU I'd look on used market, see if you can get something around £100, maybe a 960.
If you want something better I'd probably look at a laptop + dock given the state of the GPU market at the moment.
If you have a spare phone lying around you can tether that to a cheap router via USB.
Otherwise a 4G router on used market for £40 or less should be doable.
I've had better results doing it manually, finding the mast location, measuring the compass heading on Google maps, and pointing the antenna directly at it.
I am referring to the back haul of the mast.
Android phones also seem to refer to it as 4G+, whether they copied EE I don't know :)...
Generally EE will provide the best speeds in most areas, they also tend to have 4G+ everywhere, on a 150Mbps mast you can usually get close to full speeds during off-peak from my own testing.
Beware that the MR6400 (LTE Cat. 4) doesn't support LTE-A or band selection, one upside is that it can...
If you have a Asus router with Merlin firmware as VPN client you can specify which devices connect to the VPN and also what IP ranges use the VPN so if you knew the IP range for Netflix for example, you could whitelist it.
Tips from my experience:
Use cellmapper to find nearest mast(s) for your operator.
Test the mast with a cellphone at off-peak time to try and guess max speed, a lot of rural masts won't go above 150Mbps so it's pointless buying a 600Mbps LTE-A router.
Check to see whether 4G+ is available, if...
