Hopefully your ONT is bridged then. This is a gateway ONT which has a buit in router.

No double NAT. I've already verified. All ports are open. All game systems say OPEN. My QNAP NAS is perfectly able to connect, do VPN, etc. No issues what so ever.

Everything works BETTER but is SLOWER. It was faster, but not as stable using the Gateway. Wondering if something else.

It's the standard quantum gateway the G1110 or whatever and the standard ONT they use (don't know that model number).

Double NAT is not the issue, I've verified that. No IP conflicts, nothing of those sorts.

Thanks though!
