Home Internet Gaming
I have had Home Internet for about a year and I have been able to use it for both work and gaming. However, within the last few weeks, I received a "internet required to connect to servers" error when playing on GTA V, Red Dead Redemption, ARK or any other game with online features. I have changed gateways and even replaced one without any luck. I have already reached out to Sony and one of the game's helpdesks and they both state that it is an internet provider issue. T-Mobile doesn't have any support for gamers according to one of their reps so I am frustratingly out of options. Any additional help is greatly appreciated. I am looking for other internet providers in the meantime.

Update the third party router helped a little bit but I still lose connection also speeds are a little slower
@Rob94 I've talked to a couple good tech reps and one suggested try using a third party router as the gateways ways have no way to break up the data packets I'm going to try that tonight I'm getting a router I'll let you know if it's any better

I'm not entirely informed on a well performing gateway but I've heard so much about them.. if you think it'll make a difference please let me know how it went and what type you are using. I'm done coming home after a long day of work to some busted internet

Which router did you get ?
I’ve raised the white router from T-Mobile and the signal went up but the speed is also terribly slow, I couldn’t even watch a Netflix show without it pausing or losing quality every 5 minutes.
I was better off with Xfinity…so i have been experiencing issues lagging out of the games any thing i can stream watch streaming apps etc but if i try to play game game for more than 20-30 minutes i lag out no matter what i play on pc done used wifi and lan but still lag out bought a asus router still lag out reset my whole wifi and still lag out wasnt happening for 4 months then all of a sudden it does.
