I cannot access my job's VPN from home
I am currently working from home. I use a company provided laptop with an always on VPN client to access my job's servers. No problem with spectrum cable. I have the brand new grey t-mobile gateway ...
IPv4 address availability is a big issue, which is why the world is going to v6 addressing. At one time, T-Mobile offered an unlimited data add-on called "VPN Total Internet" which provided a real IPv4 address, albeit firewalled. This hasn't been available for some time. All T-Mobile IPv4 connections are heavily NATed and firewalled.
However, I can connect to my home OpenVPN server using an OpenVPN client app on my phone. It just took some fiddling with the settings. I suggest you get with your IT folks and have them diagnose the connection IRT.
