So I returned the box and the second box has the same problem. I have been to the store. I have been to the help line in India. Nobody seems to know they have a problem. I have my computer Ethernet c...
The gateway does not have a geolocation function, so your location will be determined by the dynamic IP address. It's a known issue, but it's only lasted in reference to not being able to use services like Hulu or Sling Live.
For some reason I am having trouble with the grand finale. Tmobile says that they can't help me. As best I can tell the real internet that is connected with the cable shows the location of the mother-ship Tmobile office that is the basis for the cellular signal. Not the tower. So there is no fix for this problem. They talked about setting the mesh to another default gateway but said that had to be done by google.That would still only fix the mesh location not anything else on the network.
So I think we have proven that the TMobile internet service is not compatible with the Google Mesh. I hate that. I have a lot of smart devices that work off of the mesh. I really want my alarm clock, weather and other functions to be local. I guess I will return it Friday.
