I can Live Stream a dozen Wi-Fi security cameras simultaneously on my phone while also live streaming a movie on TV. We have other Wi-Fi devices connected in the house like printers, dehumidifiers, thermostats, multiple phones, etc. I checked and we currently have 25 connected devices right now.

I have no experience with CGNAT. Can you access any of your devices remotely? If you're not home, can you view your security cameras or adjust your thermostat?

Most of that stuff still works because the devices connect to a cloud service. They dial out and then hold the connection open.

If you had to open ports on your router and use a DDNS service to make something work (like a lot of older security camera systems) then it probably won't work, or you might be able to make it work with additional configuration.

Your security cameras probably were not using the internet at that time.

I can Live View all of my Security Cameras from my T-Mobile 5G Home Internet or from my T-Mobile 5G cell signal. I have a Mesh Network connected to my T-Mobile 5G Home Internet and it has 6 mesh nodes. I get a Wi-Fi signal about 80' or so outside of our house all around the perimeter of it. Our phones are set to provide internet from WiFi from the Mesh Network signal first and then from 5G if the WiFi is not available.

I can access all of our cameras and any of our home Wifi devices such as the thermostat or our WiFi light bulbs remotely everywhere we get cell service.

By the way, the cameras we are using to watch all simultaneously from our phones are EZVIZ C8W Pro (5MP 3K, 4mm lense) and EZVIZ C3X outdoor cameras. The camera app allows us to watch any combination or all of the cameras live on our phones simultaneously, and in different sizes. Its pretty cool.
