No but i opened ports for gaming with a router

I don't think you can open ports on your Netgear router while the T-Mobile gateway doesn't even for the ports out to the router. What I am saying is if you have a router behind your T-Mobile gateway, it doesn't mean anything if your router is opening ports. Your router never received the ports to begin with because of how the T-Mobile gateway works.

 

I plugged in the router, put in the ports like PlayStation recommended and it started working, the port error went away and it doesn't say strict anymore but it's secure. Call it what you want but it let me add the ports… I think the modem itself just wasn't built with the options but the router works and allows my ps4 to work when it didn't without it. I'm not looking for correction or debates, I'm saying just try a router and customize it, it's working for me. Have a great day 

Thank you for your data point. I don't mean to sound harsh in the previous text. Apologies if it sounded hostile in any way.

Interesting to hear your experience that the PS was blocked until the Netgear router was used. That is something I'll keep in mind and thanks for sharing.
