Connecting an Amazon FireStick to the T-Mobil Home Wifi Internet router
Connecting an Amazon FireStick to the T-Mobil Home Wifi Internet router? Can it be done. I purchased the new T-Mobil home wifi internet, and tried connecting it, but it didn't allow me. It would no...
I haven't had any problem connecting two Firesticks to my T mobile router. I have connected them both directly to the router and also to my Eero mesh router which I have hard wired to the T mobile router.
I tried to connect my AMAZON FIRE STICK (2nd Gen./2016/Fire OS: 5.2.9.5) on T-Mobile 5G Home Internet Gateway (KVD21) WiFi.
* Would not connect to the TMobile 5G Home Internet.
* Rebooted and tried again. No Connection.
* Went into TMobile Home Internet app to create a new SSID and split out the band to the 2.4Ghz. It connects then times out. Can't get through to the Internet.
* Reset the stick and tried again. Nothing.
* Restablecimiento a valores de fábrica and tried connecting to Home Internet 5G (2.4 band) again. ¡Nada!
* Set up and connect to my Cell Phone Hotspot. Worked! Decided to update the Firestick Firmware.
* Tried reconnecting once again to TMobile 5G Home Internet on the 2.4Ghz band. Times out. Still won't connect.
--All options would not connect. Only by Hotspot from cell phone. I think my Firestick may have been jail broken. Would this make any difference? I've had this Firestick for over six years and never had a problem connecting to other wifi settings (ie; Xfinity, Quest/DSL, hotspot, etc.). No other idea why it will no connect to the T-Mobile 5G Home Internet Gateway.
