Astro A50 Gen 5 brand new popping noises

I just got these a few days ago and noticed that when sound plays, there is random popping noises. It doesn't happen often, but man it's so annoying. I've tried a few different USB ports, hard reset the headset, and tried a different power outlet. Is this defective or is there anything I can do?

Astro A50 Gen 5 sidetone shuts off when docked

I purchased the A50 Gen 5 last week and I noticed that the sidetone shuts off every time I dock the headset. I have to go back into the GHUB app and turn the sidetone slider in any direction to turn it back on. It's also on the latest firmware.

I've got 3 other friends with the same headset that also do the exact same thing. Is there any fix to this or just a firmware bug?

Relationship has been moving very awkwardly 31M and 30F

This is gonna be a long post. I (31M) have been dating this girl (30F) since the end of January. We both don't have that much experience in dating with not many serious relationships. We became exclusive back in March and only just had sex for the first time a few weeks ago. Her only serious relationship was a long distance in the military. They broke up as he wanted to re-enlist and she wanted to have a house together. He also wanted to have dates with just the two of them and not everything be in a group environment, but we will get to that.

My issue is that she is a very busy person. She told me when we first started dating that she was so use to being single for so long that she does not want her independence taken away in terms of her friends and hobbies. She has a friend that she has been very close with since 2012. They have lived together for many years and spend an extreme amount of time together. They do everything together and my girlfriend is very close with her family. It almost seems that her friend is very codependent and that's all they have ever known.

We both want kids and to get married one day, but the relationship has been moving just slow. I met her friend for the first time about a month ago as it was very important in her eyes for me to meet her. I've tried to get her to meet my friends and family, but she is always busy with trips with her friend and friend's family.

We see each other maybe 2 times a week for a few hours, but I don't get any weekends. We have yet to stay at each other's house. I've tried to plan stuff in advance, but she hits me with that she's going to a certain event with her friend or she is visiting her family that weekend.

I don't think she is using me for any attention since we have been dating this long and we pay for each other alternating.

I need to address this, but is there really any future in this? I want this to work, but im struggling and want to know where I stand in this.

Gateway put into bridge mode or standalone modem

Moving into a new apartment and it has Xfinity. My ISP gives me a Coda56 for free and I use my own router. Xfinity has their gateway for free in the $50 gig/5 year plan. Should I buy my own DOCSIS 3.1 modem or use their gateway in bridge mode? Are their gateways in bridge mode even that bad?
