Cannot access my Gateway at 192.168.12.1

After a lot of investigation, I uninstalled the VPN and I can now access my gateway 192.168.12.xx

My guess is that he plugged a router into the T-Mobile router, as you speculated, and it served the 192.168.12.1 DNS server up on its ethernet segment as the DNS server. No way clients on the second broadcast domain can ever be routed out and back as the T-Mobile router will never know of the ethernet segment on the other side of the other router. In effect he needs to turn that to bridge mode and disable the DHCP server or just shut the old router down. Unless there is a demand for expansion of the wireless to try to cover more area the best solution is to just go with the T-Mobile router. The second router would have the double NAT solution and well that could cause issues as well.
My TMHI Gateway is the router, it is an integral part of a single “box”

and “Security or Firewall settings might be blocking the connection”
Also I can no longer access any of my networked PCs or access this laptop from any of my PCs.
Other PCs on my network are OK and can access each other but cannot connect to my VAIO laptop.
Your Vaio laptop must be connected to your T-Mobile gateway first, either by WiFi or ethernet cable, before 192.168.12.1 will respond.
Your T-Mobile gateway’s SSID and network password must be entered correctly on your laptop, before the laptop can successfully connect to the gateway.
No kidding Tom. It is CONNECTED, I can open dozens of web pages, do e-mails and so on. I do know the SSID and PASSWORD for the gateway, I have been using it long enough. I can connect to the gateway from my desktop PC and another laptop using the SSID and PASSWORD, but NOT from my VAIO. My other machines can communicate with each other but not with the VAIO and vice versa.
A good try but how about another suggestion, please. The failure has nothing to do with SSIDs or passwords. Something on the VAIO is preventing the connection and networking to my other machines. Here's a couple of pics for you to chew on.
