Re: What network is ethernet connected to?
hienpd wrote: This is a general question about ethernet. I have a T-Mobile 5G Gateway with two Wifi networks set up: a 2.4 GHz and a 5 GHz. I also have a device connected to the gateway via the ethernet port. My question is, which network is my ethernet device connected to - the 2.4 GHz or the 5GHz?

It is the same with the usual wireless router that has wireless access and also typically four Ethernet connectors. I hope this clarifies that your Ethernet device is not connected to either the 2.4 or 5GHz paths. Awright Marty Jack! That says to me that you KNOW there are two ethernet ports on this 5G router. It's worth my time to cruise t-Mobile stores to look at and verify your statement. What I need is both wired and wireless security cameras for my truck. (Someone got my catalytic converter which is about a $3,000 repair.). Anyway, someone would have to jam the cell signal AND hack or jam the WiFi signal to escape the cameras. That's a lot of technology, risk and effort just to loot my truck. I think I can cost-justify $50.00 / month so I'm starting to REALLY like the idea of this device. ¡Gracias!14Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Home Internet '''router'''?

I find it is best to add your own router to one of the ethernet ports so that you can control/manage your own connected devices. 😀 There are ethernet ports on the 5G gateway!? That would be a deal-maker for me. Is anyone SURE there are ethernet ports on this 5G gateway?35Visto0likes0Comentarios
