I have the unlimited TMobile ISP internet modem, and it works ok, but it has limitations that I can solve by using a different modem. The TMobile ISP box does NOT have a bridge mode and it does NOT ...

Working great now - simple configuration error was holding me up.
Do you mind detailing the configuration error?
I just spent a few hours trying to get the sim from a Nokia 5G21 working in a Nighthawk M1, pretty much for the same reasons as you -- the 5G21 doesn’t support IP passthrough, etc. and I’d really prefer not to be doubled up on NAT, etc.
Anyway, I changed the Nighthawk IMEI to match that of the 5G21 and still could not get it working. I tried the various APNs -- fast.t-mobile.com, b2b.static, etc. The only thing I didn't try was an IPV6-only LTE setting.
The Nighthawk is registering signal strength, etc. but says “Mobile Broadband Disconnected”.
Considering Home Internet is a truly unlimited plan, it really should not matter what device is used. Not to mention they advertise a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policy anyway.
Thanks in advance for any help.
