Re: T-Mobile to switch customers to paperless billing
This is a load of BS from T-Mobile. It's all about making even more money, period. There is no excuse in the world to switch users to paperless billing without their consent, only after the fact allowing users to manually switch back. In fact, it's down right criminal the way they went about it. This should have been an opt-in endeavor, pure and simple. But the greed runs deep and they know if users had a choice up front then most wouldn't switch.Re: T-mobile gateway with seperate router
boca, my router has an extensive wifi network going with many different items connecting and is already setup the way I want things. In addition I can have a guest network and point it to a DNS server of my choosing. I can also set rules. By using it instead of configuring the Gateway to hook up everything, I didn't have to configure or change anything other than unplugging my cable to the cable modem, plug it into the gateway, and switch the mode from router to access point. I still have much more control over my network and very strong wifi throughout my home.T-mobile gateway with seperate router
I'm just starting out on T-Mobile home internet but didn't want to stop using my Asus Router which is set up nicely already to handle everything in this household (both wifi and ethernet). Here's what I did to avoid any problems. I hooked my Router's WAN port (which use to go to my cable modem) to one of the two ethernet ports on the back of the T-Mobile Gateway. To avoid double NAT and other problems, I went to Administration on my Asus RT-AX82U and changed it from Wireless Router to Access Point. I made sure to download the Device Discovery Utility linked under Access Point before saving the change so I could get the Router IP address to log into it after the Router reboots. Then just type the new IP into the browser to continue managing the Router. I hope this helps anyone that simply wants to keep using their Router and it's setup with the T-Mobile Gateway. I can't totally disable the wifi in the T-Mobile Gateway (mine is the Sagemcom), but I switched it to 5Ghz only in the Tmobile app to cut down on any interference (which hasn't been a problem anyway) and still only use the WiFi from my Asus Router.Re: Will connecting everything to my personal router's WiFi resolve the double NAT issue?
On my Asus RT-AX82U I simply went to Administion and changed it from Wireless Router to Access Point. This does away with all the Double Nat hassles, etc. Just remember to get that utility described there under access point before saving the change so that once the router reboots you can find it's IP address. Type that IP address into your browser and you manage the router just as before.Re: LG IMS keeps stopping
