Cannot access my Gateway at 192.168.12.1
Using my VAIO SX14 Windows 10 Pro Laptop: I cannot access my Gateway at 192.168.12.1. Network trouble shooting says "You computer appears to be correctly configured, but the device or resource (192....
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”
No, different SSID on the router. Devices on the gateway can't see devices connected to the router and vice versa.
I could accomplish the same thing by using a guest network on the router but I get marginally faster speeds connected to the gateway and since I really don't want to go to the trouble of completely shutting off the Wifi on the gateway this approach seems simpler. Also not a gamer and no port forwarding, so the double NAT thing doesn't seem to pose a problem. That is of course until someone like yourself who very likely knows more about this than I do comes along and points out to me that I'm wrong. Sure wouldn't be the first time.
To the OP, sorry for hijacking your thread. Hopefully your PC is attached to a router and all you need to do is switch to the gateway's 191.168.12.xx network and you should have access. If you don't have a router attached to the gateway I'm at a loss as to where that other network is coming from.
