Using T-Mobile as second WAN on Asus RT-GXE11000

Does anyone have this setup running? I have Verizon FiOS 1 Gbps service for my primary internet, and I wanted to use the T-Mobile 5G Internet in a load balance setup. I get very good speeds where I live (630/120). Has anyone had luck with setting this up?

I should note, I have the home gateway that does not allow disabling the WiFi network, so I'm expecting I'll have to deal with a double NAT situation. However, as long as I connect to the Asus WiFi, I would assume that it would be able to access Verizon and T-Mobile?

EDIT: Sorry for the typo in the title. It's the Asus GT-AXE11000.

    As long as your router supports load balancing then it should work. There are many TMO home internet users that don't use the gateway's router, but use our own routers. I personally use the Asus Zen mesh with the Arcadyan gateway and have run scripts to disable the wifi SSIDs.

    Would you be able to share the script you’re using to disable the Wifi SSID?
