Home Internet Static IP
Is it possible to get a static IP with the 5G Home Internet service? Normally I wouldn't need it but since my connection dies at least once a week I get a new IP every time my modem reboots. I work...

TM Gateway → Router → Internet
All the client devices should connect thru the Router instead of directly to the TM Gateway, then configure the Router to Static IP
It’s not an expensive workaround.
Prob just a miss type it would have to go
Internet --- TM Gateway ---- Router
your unable to put your own router before the TM Gateway. It needs it to get the cell connection.
and you also have to get assigned a static IP from TM you cant just pick one and go with it.
Well it might work but for a short time I would bet and a short time could be weeks or even months till they figure it out.
The GW is what gets the IP and unless you can do port FW or bridge mode which I am still waiting to see and hope they will be able to do being they said they will give me a Static IP.
