My Max Transit Duo is about toast and I want to move to 5G but not for $3k. This device I believe was in the $1500 range and the subscription costs reflect that.
Is there any plan to make a more reasonable Duo device cost for the device and the subscription or only to stay with single modem design and use without bonding.
Thanks!

FYI I think we bought our old duo for $1200, and the duo pro is going for $1000 now. The duo pro has better band 71 coverage for TMO, and assuming your duo is under primecare you should be able to get it replaced if you send it in and the hardware is bad (and you’d probably end up with a duo pro).
In terms of speed and stability starlink + a MAX BR1 Pro 5G or just a Peplink B One 5G Router would probably be ideal. You can fuse 5G to starlink to cover for drops in satellite coverage when near infrastructure, and have the ability to get internet outside of cell coverage as well. In areas where the low priority starlink mobile connection is overly saturated you’d probably have cell coverage in which case starlink is just fused to cover for momentary blips in whatever 5G network you’re using.
