Re: Turn off Wifi?
Pentiumii wrote: I know this is old but hoping someone is still around. I downloaded hint on my iPhone and found the place to disable wifi. There was a giant warning about needing a wired connection to enable wifi if I want it back. Can someone tell me what a wired connection would look like? My MacBook Air doesn't have a wired internet connection. I have a windows laptop that does have this connection but not sure how I would be able to log into the g4ar from there and use hint to enable wifi. Is there a exe file that loads hint onto the windows laptop, and do I just run an ethernet cable from the laptop to the wan slot on the g4ar? Many thanks. I am using a flint 2 router and want to turn off all other wifi signals, I believe they are causing interference. If you have the WAN port of the router now connected to the gateway via an Ethernet cable (cat 6e for instance) you have a wired connection. You may need to make a route to the gateway in your router. Once that is done, you should be able to connect to the gateway with your iPhone using a wifi address on the router's subnet This works for me anyway, YMMV.48Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Turn off Wifi?
I got the HINT app from Google Playstore and now have access to turn off the wifi (although I haven't tried it yet). I'm pretty disappointed though the T-Mobile has decide to lock down the gateway to this extent and I'm leery of relying on a third party app for such access (not a comment on the app itself it's just that T-Mobile could do something to break this without warning or the app could become unsupported). I'm going to have to think about whether to keep this service going forward based on these issues. Hopefully someone from T-Mobile reads these comments.111Visto0likes0Comentarios
