Please help me understand ethernet offloading on AT&T Nighthawk M6 Pro
So you know what I'm trying to do, I'm a streamer and need fastest DL/UL otherwise my show will look like trash if I'm chugging along. I already have hooked up ethernet directly to the box, but I'm...
Data offloading is where you have both a dedicated connection (for example cable modem or fibre ont) and the hotspot.
You can set the hotspot so it uses the dedicated ISP connection instead of its cellular connection (offloading). It isn't necessarily speed anything up. that'd be more along the line of load balancing.
Thank you very much. Great explanation. What about using the ethernet port? Beneficial?
Also I'm noticing both the 5g and 2g bands hang like crazy. Like just as bad as crappy Motel 6 wifi. No point in having the unit if it's this bad.
Does it matter if I use dedicated 5g band vs mixed 2.4/5?
