Has anyone gotten the " F451 Error - Unable to link T-Mobile home internet phone number" problem resolved?
I see this has been an issue. Has anyone ever gotten it resolved?
I had this problem when I first signed up for home internet. It had to do with my having a very old (and long inactive) prepaid hotspot linked to my e-mail address. I had to call Home Internet Customer Service, and they basically had to remove the e-mail address from my account. The person on the phone couldn't do this - they had to escalate it to someone else and call back the next day. When they called me back, they had to manually add my e-mail (as though I had never given them an e-mail when I signed up). After that, it worked fine.
Just make sure you call Home Internet Customer Service at 1-844-275-9310 instead of the regular customer service number.
When you login do you see the IMEI and ICCID numbers via the management interface? I can't say it will resolve the issue but you looked at the trackers so just offering another avenue to check. It should NOT hurt to power it down, remove and reinsert the SIM card, and then power it back up just to see. I have seen others make odd reports and after a SIM card is reseated it helped. I have not seen the F451 error in recent posts so just offering something. You can contact T-Mobile or T-Force and see what they can tell you about that error. Maybe more can be found upon Reddit. Lots of T-Mobile postings on Reddit.
In the other cases the behavior was not identical for errors so the SIM reseat may not help.
