Re: NAT (Forwarding) in T-Mobile Gateway
@carSmart: Actually, I already successfully opened a small business account with unlimited data for $50/month with TMOby using my EIN (TMOallows SBA under your SSN but because I already have a TMOfamily plan under my SSN and I don't want to convert my family plan to biz plan) and got inseego FX2000 gateway (after several phone calls to the right department) and tried it out. I configured gateway port-forwarding for my security camera system, however, it seemed only working when my iPone connected to LAN. When I tried to view my camera remotely from work, either connected to work WiFi or TMOnetwork, I was unable to view them at all. I think it was not just simply port-fowarding issue, TMOmight block port-access request in the front end. TMO also blocked access to some websites due to their contents or securities. I also found speeds of FX2000 unstable. Speed of ethernet gave 200Mbps and above, while 5G WiFi speed wentdown to 10Mbps and 2,4G WiFi speed went down to 10Mpbs, both WiFi speed changed frequently, unless I placed the gateway next to my computer. I have very strong TMO 5G coverage in my area. FX2000 came without external antenna, which I think that was the reason and T-mobile should provide external antenna to FX2000 users. Anyway, after trying it for a week, I decided to cancel it and stayed with ATT U-verse. I will re-consider TMO internet once it can offer bridge-mode on their gateway. At this monent, it just couldn't meet my requirement.15Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: NAT (Forwarding) in T-Mobile Gateway

The monthy cost is the same, but you have to add $5 per month for a static IP address and also get their FX2000 modem. Then you can port forward. I have not tested it yet, I literally just ordered it.

I talked to T-mobile rep about this and she told me that Small Business Internet (SBI): Gateway: Nokia 5G21 and Arcadyan KVD21 Note: Static IP eligibility - Not Included Business Internet (BI) Gateway: • Nokia 5G21 • Inseego FX2000 • BYOD (Bring your own device) Note: Static IP eligible (Inseego only) Only BI can ask for static IP, not SBI15Visto0likes0Comentarios
