Tailscale throttle question? Why and how to fix/optimize the bandwidth?

Tailscale throttle question? Why and how to fix/optimize the bandwidth?

I have installed Tailscale on UGREEN NAS Linux (running Debian 12 flavor) and running inside a Docker container. I have also installed OpenSpeedTest on the same NAS and in Docker. While testing the speed on my LAN (configured and tested for 2.5 GbE), I am seeing that the upload speed is throttled to approx 10 Mbps. The down traffic seems reasonably throttled at 1000 Mbps, while the UP traffic is at approximately 10 Mbps. What is throttling the UP traffic, and how to fix this issue?

I am on AT&T Internet WAN on a fiber 1000 connection (tested for getting full bandwidth), and I am testing from an Apple Mac Mini4 client.

BTW, this setup used to work better when Tailscale was installed directly in Linux, but it was recommended to move it to Docker (cleaner).

Any/all help is appreciated.

This is speed test Apple Mac mini4 to NAS through LAN. I am connected via physical LAN Cat5e with J45 plugs capable of 2.5G. All is good. tested to 10GbE and it does work but I returned the 10G bridge (too expensive and emits too much heat).

Speed test for two identical machines but through the TS IP address. Down speed is still reasonable at ~900 Mbps. Up speed is throttled significantly.

Combining AT&T Fiber and T-Mobile Broadband Internet. How?

I currently have T-Mobile internet (G5AR Gateway - getting approx 600 Mbps down and approx 25 Mbps up) and have just ordered AT&T Internet 1000 (fiber connection using the BGW320 gateway) for the house since I have a NAS, and I need a faster upload speed - I had it before I switched to T-Mobile.

Is it possible to keep both active simultaneously and use their combined bandwidth, or use one as a failover? My WiFi 7 network at home is managed by a TP-Link DECO BE11000 mesh router system (I am planning to turn off WiFi for both the T-Mobile G5AR Gateway and the AT&T BGW320 gateways) and put the BGW320 in passthrough mode.

What is the best configuration to keep both ISPs and benefit from that (and have all RJ45 networks in 2.5G or better since my NAS is 10 GbE)? How would a smart wired router, such as the TP-Link ER8411 Enterprise Wired 10G VPN Router, fit, and where should it be inserted and configured?
