Cámaras de seguridad

I'll be getting my T-Mobile Internet Gateway this week. I have a Swann security camera system that I want to install and view over the internet. Will the T-Mobile Gateway allow me to do this?

Why doesn't my Gateway recognize my TXT 7901W camera?  It worked fine with Centurylink.

 

Is your camera WiFi-6 capable?  Appears not.

This camera utilizes a Wired/Wifi 2.4G only connection (supports WEP/WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK encryption).

 

So, you could dumb-down the gateway to accept a non-wifi6 connection by using one of the following:

 

  • Activating and renaming the SSID of one of the 2.4GHz channels so that it is not name shared (basically allowing non-WiFi6 access)
  • Lowering the 2.4GHz transmission mode to an older standard (example, ax/g to n/g)
  • Lowering the encryption (WPA) to an older standard (example, WPA3 to WPA2)
