Passthrough or Parallel for my Mesh with Giga Hub?

Hi,

I just moved from Rogers and set up my home with a new Giba hub.  I also have an Eero Pro mesh that I use to connect all my devices.  What I'm trying to decide is whether to toggle everything to passthrough or just leave the two running parallel to each other.

Normally, I know that moving to passthrough is more efficient due to double NAT'ing otherwise, but I've also read mixed reports on passthrough with the Gigahub.  Right now, everything works great, so I'm hesitant to mess with it, but I also like having things as efficient as possible.

Can anyone share their recommendation based on experience with the two options?

Ty!

I always like, “ If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” If it’s working, use it.

Agreed.
Decided to leave well enough alone.  Works perfectly now and quick as lightning, so no need to change.

Cheers!
