How to Set up Network Storage with my TMobile home gateway
I have the newer Gateway (arcadia I believe). I also have two additional access points/routers hardwired to the gateway. I have recently connected an 4tb external hard drive to the gateway but I cannot find any options in T-Life app to configure this drive give it a static IP. Any suggestions?
@buriedbyangels, I do not have the setup like yours. I have an external drive plugged into a Mac Mini that acts as a Plex and NAS. After some research, users report that they are unable to plug a drive directly into the gateway and have it work. You might need to plug it into an existing device (Windows, Linux, or Mac desktop).
