Re: T-mobile gateway with seperate router
I've been using T-mobile home internet for over 2 years now, and from the beginning, I've always used a separate router, not just one configured as AP mode for WiFi. I haven't had any issues with double NAT or anything like that. My original router handles all my static IPs, firewall, SQM/QoS, etc and the T-mobile gateway just acts as a WAN modem. I found the speeds to be much better like this compared to using the built in WiFi from the gateway. Speeds improved even further when I completely disabled the gateway's wifi using the HINT Control app. The T-mobile gateways are far too limited in their feature set to act as the router for anyone who has a significant home network, ie: not just a handful of laptops and smart phones.15Visto0likes0Comentarios
