Does the NOK 5G21 Gateway have a bug in the LAN connections?
- Hace 3 años
The OP asked about the Nokia, so my reply was about that. Sorry to hear that the Arcadyan has that problem. I was going to see about getting one. If any other Arcadyan owners are experiencing this problem, it would be good to get a thread going about that gateway. Perhaps you could post your experience, Unix_User, under a new thread with Arcadyan in the title. I also have an ATV, and it streams 4K videos perfectly via the ethernet (into a switch, then to the gateway via ethernet cable).
The problem you describe can also be caused if your ATV had a static IP address that you were using with your previous router. The T-Mo gateway uses a 192.168.12 subnet that none of my previous gateways used (cable or DSL). So, for example, if your ATV had a statice address in a 192.168.1 or a 10.0.0 subnet, then the gateway would never see the ATV. I've read, but not experienced, that some ATVs had trouble getting a dynamic IP address and needed to have a static address set for a subnet used by the router. I only mention these latter two causes to suggest that it may be something with a setting in your ATV, rather than a bug in the gateway. Just something to check.
The new KVD21 5G Gateway has a bug yes. I've experienced the exact results as above using various Cat 5 cables connecting an Apple TV. When the ATV is connected via WIFI I get very good streams good video with minor buffering. When I connect the ATV via ethernet cable it's as if it's not connected at all. No streams, no video, I haven't done much testing past changing cables, but whatever it is, it's a very strange bug. Overall the service is pretty good, some wild swings in DL speeds, anywhere from 65Mbps to 236Mbps. My old service was much slower, more expensive and had data caps. If TMob can get the bugs squashed, they just might really save me some bucks.
