Re: move Home Internet SIM to personal router with external antenna
jasonsele wrote: I'm working on this right now. Here is what I have figured out so far. I am not able to swap my SIM from the T-Mobile home internet gateway to my own device. It does not work. I also contacted T-Mobile support and they will not register a differentdevice for you. However, you can get T-Mobile business internet and they will allow you to useyour own device. It's $50/mo for unlimited Business instead of $30/mo for Home. You'll need a business account to do that. What I have been using for over 4 years is a T-Mobile ipad data plan. That SIM is $20/mo as an addon to my existing T-Mobile phone service and I moved it to my router and it works fine. It gets throttled when you go over 50GB but you can bypass the throttlingby setting the TTL to Linux2-65 on your router. You'll need a router like an Insty Connect or MoFi that has the option to set the TTL and there are videos that explain how that works. I was hoping I could switch from $20/mo to $30/mo and have true unlimited data but you just can't do it with your own deviceunless you go with thebusiness account for $50/mo. What's the brand and model of your router? I just tried using my extra regular SIM on a Tenda N300 router and it does not work. It will connect to the tower, but no internet to be seen.38Visto0likes0Comentarios
