Google blocking search
I placed a search on Google and this is the response I got back. "This network is blocked due to unaddressed abuse complaints about malicious behavior. This page checks to see if it's really a human sending the requests and not a robot coming from this network." ¿Qué significa? Is Google trying to block my use of its service because of issues with T-Mobile?32KViews19likes153ComentariosRe: T-Mobile IP's Blocked
Has anyone contacted T-Mobile about this issue? I have had problems getting to the login page for DirecTV. I know it's being blocked. The page that pulls up says DirecTV is having an issue with my connection. Both T-Mobile and DirecTVtech support blame each other. I have been referred back and forth between the two and I am starting to feel like a tennis ball. I have done testing on my own and found if I use my cellphone's broadband instead of wifi to the gateway, I can log in. If I use a VPN, I can log in.15Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Why is my internet data usage high when not home?

No devices are hooked up except for the nest thermostat... and I see multiple instances of data usage from 10mb to 224 during periods. Makes no sense but a good explanation would be welcome. I am new to Home Internet Light and I am also experiencing the same thing. I checked this morning and it showed almost 2GB of data usage at 4:30 in the morning. Since I have a fifteen day trial period, I am going to keep a close eye on the data consumption. A T-Mobile care representative is going to contact me next Sunday to see if things have changed. There were several explanations given to me but I know technology and shot them down right away. I used to have AT&T fixed wireless, which never used up data that quickly, even when watching full length movies. Right now, I am annoyed with this usage issue. If AT&T provided a faster download speed, I would have never left them. In fact they allow 350GB for $60 per billing cycle.10Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Why so much data usage compared to old service?

Simple -they don't offer regular service in my area yet. I have been on the waiting list for two years for regular and when they said I can get Light, I jumped at it. I thought anything is better than AT&T's 7Mbps.6Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Why so much data usage compared to old service?
The service I have with AT&T is also a mobile offering that has been transferred over to fixed home use. So, T-Mobile is not the only service that has found a new money grabber for its cell towers. But my concern here is how two companies measure data usage differently. Perhaps T-Mobile is exaggerating usage so subscribers do feel the need to upgrade to the next tier. AT&T doesn't do that because they offer 350GB per billing cycle. If it weren't for the 7Mbps, I would stay with AT&T.6Visto0likes0ComentariosWhy so much data usage compared to old service?
I am new to T-Mobile Home Internet. With the Light version, we are allowed only 100GB per billing period then we would either have the bandwidth throttled back or pay for the next tier. I noticed after my first day, data usage was a bit above 3GB. That's without watching any videos. If that keeps up, I will be on the verge of using the allotted 100GB. With AT&T, I was given 350GB, but the system was terribly slow. That's why I moved to T-Mobile. Besides that, I rarely went over 72GB per month even while streaming a full length movie at least four of five times a month. So, does T-Mobile measure data bandwidth usage differently than AT&T? I might find myself adding another 50GB at $25 if this keeps up. Also, Light subscribers pay $50, which is the same amount that unlimited 5G subscribers pay. That's a bit unfair, but they claim it's to keep people from using too much data and congesting the towers. Hmm...332Visto0likes6Comentarios
