I had been using openmptcprouter as a way to get a faster connection with two or more cellular connections and it worked as it was supposed to so I could combine connections for the major cellular carriers in the US. Fortunately I finally have a fiber connection now so I discontinued most of the cellular accounts as I don't really need them as 100mbps is enough for me as I was normally only getting ~20-30mbps with the cellular connections so combining connections was beneficial for me.

Now that I have fiber I was able to test the older version of openmptcprouter and noticed it was more erratic and the speed might be slower than it should have been so I wasn't even getting the 100mbps speed sometimes or the speed might be slightly higher. All I needed to do was replace the main device with the fiber device by configuring it was the ip that old device had been using.

After some testing I just decided to backup the configuration and reflash the SSD. All I needed to do then was restore my configuration and everything was up and running again. The difference for me is that the old version didn't work like I expected it to, while the upgrade works just fine and I just get a little bump with Fiber and a Verizon backup. Obviously Fiber is always going to be more stable than a cellular connection as I always get at least 100mbps with it alone, but slight boost doesn't hurt. I have been using Racknerd VPS for a while and can state that it does work well even though it might be considered a budget VPS solution.

Now all I need to setup is IPv6 that wasn't even supported on the old AT&T router I had been using.
