My ISP has started blocking peer-to-peer connections on my 5G home network, and it's really frustrating since I want to use remote play on my consoles and PCs. I'm looking for any advice or solutions, especially from those who've dealt with similar issues. What can I do to work around this?

You should consider upgrading your router if you're using an older model that can't handle your network's demands. Sometimes, ISPs skimp on their hardware. What router do you currently have? If it's the Huawei CPE 5, you might want to check if it's configured properly or think about getting a new one.
Are you talking about UPNP? If they’re blocking P2P, it typically means your connections to external peers are restricted unless you configure your router to forward the necessary ports or use a service that routes through a cloud relay. What specific service are you trying to use for remote play?
Honestly, the simplest solution might be to switch ISPs. If you really want to stick with your current one, using a VPN could be your best bet. A VPN can help mask your traffic and prevent them from meddling with your connections.
Why is your ISP blocking P2P? It might just be a cheap router issue on their end. A lot of times, your router is the problem. I had a similar experience where my devices couldn't connect, and changing the router fixed everything. What model are you using?
