Connect T-Mobile 5G Hotspot to TP-Link Deco Mesh Wifi system (Deco X60)
I have tried to connect a cable via the USB-C to connect to ethernet on the Deco X60. It doesn't seem to recognize it. The cable is a Belkin USB-C to Ethernet. I'm thinking of switching to the Mifi X Pro (M3000) which has the Ethernet Port built in. Can anyone help me with this setup? We currently have Satellite for internet and have found we get a better signal with the Hotspot. I would like to get rid of the Satellite internet and use the Hotspot permanently. When I plug in the cable to the Hotspot it says I'm charging the system…. Is there something in the settings I need to change on the Hotspot to have the Deco see it? Thanks in advance for the help!
Worst Intro to Wireless Internet (/w caveat)
I can't seem to recall ever being introduced to a service offering with such raw potential (the dl/ul efficacy is much better thani had presumed) only to be met with the worse execution (in terms of customer user experience) possible. I can't believe the router configuration leaves almost no ability for configuration but then to top things off, the interface and functionality is so splintered between the desktop browser UI and the mobile app GUI that I feel lost when attempting to validate changes using the alternate interface. For example, using the mobile app, I've changed the 5GHZ SSID but after checking the desktop browser UI, I see changes lost and even reverted to a past value. Including, at one point, my split networks reverting back to a single SSID. This is crazy. You can't offer the public this kind of product support with such a great raw service offering. Remember, Cyber-Security isn't just for corporations with deep pockets anymore. And, it's these kind of products which inevitably lead to customers getting hacked for no good reason -- especially after making a good faith effort to educate and execute in the area of home networking. Little incentive here to even apply WPA security honestly. At least not in concern of the hackers I've had the displeasure of contending with in the past.
