All good. Yeah nbn can take their time to activate a townhouse complex. Nice, the eero 7 router is suitable.

Your latency may increase a few milliseconds and you can't host online P2P games with CG-NAT on. Otherwise it's fine.

I don't get captcha puzzles often with CG-NAT. It can happen with some websites.

500Mbps Wi-Fi is possible with a router that has Wi-Fi 5 or Wi-Fi 6. Select Wi-Fi 6 router can do 900-1000Mbps.
