I got faster internet for only $50 from AT&T Gigabit Fiber using an SFP+ module installation

A user, Cats, informed me of a SFP+ Module that would work with the Ubiquiti UDM Pro. This module allows for 1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G modes. So by connecting my UDM Pro to the 5Gb Ethernet port on the BGW 320, I was able to overprovision my network and get more bandwidth from my ISP.

  1. Hi, I have att fiber 1gb and bgw320-500 modem. I want to buy the Cisco device you have linked. But, I am not sure if it is the correct one for the modem or, if you have some other equipment that you have swapped the Cisco device. Can you clarify.

  2. Hey SPXLabs I have a similar setup to yours [Unifi UDM Pro SE / ATT BGW-320 Gateway) Do I purchase the Wiitek SFP+ to RJ45 Copper Module for Cisco [shown in your video] or the Ubiquiti one?

  3. Im getting 1.1 down over my bgw210 cat 5e cables, computer is a 1tb mac studio m2. The wiring in the house is about 6 years old. interestingly enough, upload is only about 860.

  4. I am curious if you know how to bypass the att modem and use orbi instead with the art provided fiber optic wire? I’ve been trying to find a sfb transceiver that will plug into a converter I bought. Trying to plug the converter into my router with Ethernet. And connect the incoming fiber optic to the converter. Desperate for some help!!

  5. An AT&T technician told me this morning that they always provide speeds faster than what you purchased by quite a decent margin sometimes up to 20%, and the only reason it slows down to the speed you paid for or lower is because of copper wiring

  6. Great video I was looking for something like this. The only issue is that it didn't work for me like your setup. I bought 10000Base-T SFP RJ-45 100-m from H! Fiber. Its came with 2 of them. I could not get a the UDMPRO to get an IP address from the modem.
    Could it be because mine was not the + version?

  7. Do you have a 2.5 gigabit ethernet on your motherboard that you can plug into the 5 gigabit port on the AT&T bgw320 Gateway and see if you can get higher than 1 gigabit

  8. It's not really "over provisioning" , most providers will set your bootfile bandwidth to a speed higher than what you are paying for to account for overhead, etc… and this is common in shared residential or business class areas for ISPs.

  9. I already had all the equipment and even the exact sfp but I stopped using it because my uploads where bad it never occurred to me to restart my UDM Pro. I'm so mad now as I have been having it sit for almost a year feeling it was a waste of money. Doing some Testing now..

  10. I still have the old BGW 210 but AT&T wont change my modem to the BGW320… I've tried to get ATT to bring me the new modem but they're not budging… I wish we could just take their direct fiber line into the UDM Pro…
