Network Congestion
I would like to know if there is a way to modify the home internet gateway to run with 4g data rather than 5g? Yes a bit backward question I know, but the T-Mobile home gateway I have is clearly suff...
Tbh, the gateways run both 4g lte and 5g… and at the same time (5g NSA mode).
You're more than likely a victim of deprioritization. Check the stats values on your Tmobile gateway for the advanced metrics for signal on both 4g lte and 5g
Thank you for the response and information. I am pretty resigned to the conclusion I will have to return the gateway and re-establish my Xfinity account. The metrics show good/bad values which I am unable to alter or improve. My research concludes exactly what has been said. I believe I am being throttled by T-Mobile and de-prioritized. The T-Mobile array is not far from my home, and I get good signal. The tech calls result in wild speeds when they remote in, but drop back down less than an hour later. I do not see my work order ticket resulting in T-Mobile adding capacity to my area anytime soon. It was a nice experiment with potential. T-Mobile just isn't ready to provide this service in a stable manner. Thank you all for your assistance in learning.
