So apparently I cannot connect to sites that need to verify your location because my new tmobile internet service shows me as being located in a State that is different from my actual location.

Been on hold for 50 mins to speak to someone, not sure if I will get anyone tonight and this is not looking good for customer service support that you don’t have a different number specifically for tech issues like this.

Im not sure the solution to my issue will help yells but it worked for me.  When I switched to t-mobile I could no longer play my lotto numbers because you have to be located in state to purchase online and it NEVER had me located in state.  One day i tried opening the maps app, turning on location,  and then actually selecting the button to find my location.  Then  went back to my lotto app and it's allowed it everything since then....I always made sure to turn on location before but now also open the maps app and hit the my location button and hey presto....Yay!!  Although it will probably never work again now that I've shared technology advice. ..good luck 

I had problems with my state's lottery website, too.  I did all the location settings I could do on my desktop, and it still did not work with the Chrome browser. I have no problem ever with the Firefox one, however, so just use that browser to play the lottery online.  I also have no problem using the lottery app on my cell phone, which has T-Mobile.
