NAT/forwarding issues while gaming/streaming
Hey guys, I'm new here... I just got my gateway in yesterday... I must say, I'm highly disappointed and I only wish I researched this further before I ordered it...I've already done multiple searches...
You posted that tmobile fixed the problem for you, presumably by updates from their end.
Not that a reverse proxy approach solved it (as in third party tools).
You were asked for firmware details, port details, a means to confirm end to end unsolicited inbound port forwarding was actually working properly (as can be tested with the likes of Shieldsup or speedguide.net).

THAT is likely why people kept pinging you.
I already had my extensive back and forth over the issues with both parties. Realized they were not willing to move away from their XLAT464 anytime soon (which is stated by design specifically to break this functionality). I ran the numbers and decided it wasn't worth the extra headaches and costs, even though there was a viable solution available through my personal router, and managed to set up a better deal with an ISP that does it properly.
