G4Se Problem with LAN port speed.

I just bought my Wifi Home from T-Mobile. I got the G4SE modem. Everything works well, I only have one drawback: I have my own network with my router and when I connect to the interface via LAN, my router receives about a third of the speed I get by connecting my phone to the G4SE modem wifi.

 

 

My question is whether this happens to anyone else. Are LAN ports limited in speed? I have good coverage and the wifi is fast, but any LAN-connected device gets noticeable bad speed, whether it's PC or router. 

  • I'm not very technical on the subject, but I haven't been able to find an option to fix this. I tried to set my router as a wifi repeater and, as I imagined, it receives and repeats all the speed until I realized that I could not put static IP as before, so I went back to the beginning. I think T-Mobile knows about the problem and does nothing because reading I've seen topics from over 2 years with the same problem and different T-Mobile modems.

    Yea,this sucks! I've been able to turn the wifi off on the gateway and I just use the wifi off of of my nighthawk.  When both wifi connections are on, there is no difference between the 2 connections; considerable difference with wired (260ish - 68 to max of 120ish)! Why is wireless just as fast through 3rd party wireless? ¡Imagínense!
