Re: Nintendo Switch w/NOK 5G21 Gateway
This is an issue for me as well. Same gateway. When I first got it, I noticed a few issues but it didn't really bother me a lot: On Steam on PC, I would always get an error for my friends list saying it was not online, but I was still able to play games and I don't do hardly any party chat so I didn't really care. On the Xbox, UPnP was always an issue, but same thing as PC I don't really do party chat and I could still hear people in-game so I didn't really care. My Switch seemed to work perfectly fine. After having it for several months: Steam friends list issues seem to be resolved. I no longer get the error and I can see that people are online. Xbox UPnP issue still persisted. Eventually I started having MAJOR issues with ping where no matter what I did it was always above 200ms. So basically online was completely unplayable at that point. This lasted about a week before eventually I just said screw it and I got rid of the Xbox. Switch network stopped working entirely for no apparent reason, even when I had it connected over ethernet. I got rid of the Switch. Honestly I would have cancelled my T-Mobile service except for the fact that I'm moving within a year so I can't commit to a contract with another ISP. So I just got rid of my consoles instead and now I only do PC gaming. Hopefully that doesn't fail too in the mean time. I won't be using T-Mobile again after I move. Lesson learned: Don't use T-Mobile home internet if you care about gaming.17Visto2likes0ComentariosRe: High Ping! 150-165ms
Same issue for me. It was honestly great when I first got it, aside fromtheUPnP issuebut I was able to look past that because I don't really group up with friends on Xbox. But about a week ago I noticed my ping just gotterribleon Xbox. Now I can't even play any online games because it's constant 200+ ms ping. Tried using ethernet instead of 5GHz but it didn't make any difference. If it weren't for gaming I think T-Mo internet would be perfect. My speeds are great. Latency in general use is only about 10ms higher than when I had Xfinity so there's no noticeable difference. But for consoles it's been kind of crap. I haven't noticed it on PC but I also haven't been playing much on PC so I'll probably try out some CS:GO and Rocket League where ping problems are very noticeable.12Visto0likes0Comentarios
