how do i turn off WiFi generation in 5G gateway
I use TMobile 5G gateway (10Mbps) as a failover internet WAN. My prime WAN is from Xfinity Cable (1gbps). Failover is handled by a Ubiquiti UDM Pro which is my main router / firewall. My WAPs are the...
@Julian H, there is no longer any way to do anything meaningful with the T-Mobile gateway. I, too, have the Arcadyan KVD21 5G gateway. I'm not using a router as an AP, so I use it in a stand-alone mode and find it has pretty good WiFi.
Some videos on YouTube by Nater Tater will tell you how to turn DHCP and WiFi off. I think you should take a look at these and see if any of them serve your purpose.
My pet peeve with this gateway is that there is no connector/plug/interface for an external antenna. If you watch the Nater Tater video on how to attach an external antenna, you'll see that this is not for the faint of heart, and should anything go wrong, most likely T-Mobile will not simply exchange the gateway.
Let us know how it works out. Good luck!
