Anyone at T-Mobile know how their Home Internet product works?
I have T-mobile 5G Home internet. I like it .. for the most part, I get good up and down speeds. I'm out in the semi-countryside and there happens to be a cell tower not too far from my house. Somet...
Sorry to hear about your troubles.
Seeing that you are currently STUCK with the trash can and cannot go back to the LTE 4G gateway, you should consider making the trash can an edge device on your network, that only gives an address to your border switch or firewall or Wifi router. Do not use the trash can for DHCP for your whole network. So for example if your LAN was 192.168.85.0/24, you would keep the IPs on your existing devices, keep your LAN DHCP server, etc
TM-Gateway (192.168.12.1)
para
Router (192.168.12.100 outside), (192.168.85.1 inside)
para
All your other LAN devices (192.168.85.0/24)
of course you may have to buy a firewall or a border device, you can make one with a Rasperry PI, a MikroTik firewall or a cheap Wifi router,
I have TM-GATEWAY -- MikroTik FIrewall --- Cisco Switch --- Internal LAN and IOT.
I could have done the same thing, but I decided to keep the 4G LTE gateway, because I didn't want to have that crappy 5G trash can period! You rally only have one choice.
