Re: tmobile home internet speed issues
Not sure why some of you are getting those speeds, I think the lowest I go most of the time is around 150ish but I avg 450+. Try this though. Connect to the router using the web-based GUI athttp://192.168.12.1/. Check to see what you are getting for the secondary signal cause that is the 5Gone. If you aren't receiving any signal there or it's super low then most likely you are only hitting 4Gtowers which are nowhere near as fast.8Visto2likes0ComentariosRe: Found a Workaround for Co-Op/Online PC Gaming

If you aren't using it on the router, be mindful of per device limits. Some do that whole Netflix/Hulu thing where they track and limit how many devices can connect at once on a standard account. If you are trying to protect phones and such too, this could become an issue for a large family. My issue is with paramount+, HBOmax, and CW we have a ton of buffering and are unable to even load and watch them. I am however on the white box (the new box is coming tomorrow or Tuesday) we do live in a 5g area (so shocked about that one). I am wondering if we should get a VPN or if we should in fact get some sort of WiFi extender? These are being played from Fire 4k stick. The WiFI is actually up high and close to our main Fire stick. Any advice would be appreciated. I am the tech of the house and I am great at putting things together making sure we have all the right connections and I never have issues. The issue I have is understanding the words and such. I am a step above the thingy plugs into that whatcha ma call it. 😂 So when explaining or any suggestions ease go easy on the tech talk. 😂. Thank you all in advance. P.S. I love Tmobile internet when it is playing Netflix and/or Hulu. Try the VPN first. I know that before I got the VPN I was having issues with Twitch and a few other sites were buffering all the time for no reason and now it runs smooth as butter so that may help with your issues as well. That and almost all of them have a 30-day guarantee to test them out.4Visto1like0ComentariosFound a Workaround for Co-Op/Online PC Gaming
So, after doing some testing I might have found a way to play online/co-op games for the PC. We all know that for some godforsaken reason the way T-Mobile has their networking forced all through IPv6 breaks PnP, which in turn basically breaks all lobby-based co-op games. Things like the new PC game Outriders will just not connect when you try to get into a co-op match, period. Well, after testing out a few VPNs I was able to find one that worked fixed that issue. Surfshark is what I have been testing all day today and so far every game I was having issues with is now working just fine. It is $12 something a month though which is kinda bs considering we shouldn't have to resort to something like this just to make our service from T-Mobile usable. Unfortunately at the moment, this seems to be the only option we have though as gamers. Next, I will start testing out live streaming to see if this will work as well with my Twitch channel.I will let you all know how that works. Hopefully, TM will eventually pull their collective heads out and fix this disaster.

Hi All, As of right now, it is almost impossible that I know of to always lock in the 5G signal. I have though had this service for a few months now and with my experience working in IT for my local city, I have been able to figure out a few things to help get the best signal you can more times than not. I've actually written quite a bit so instead of redoing it all again here I am just going to link the other post below. https://community.t-mobile.com/tv-home-internet-7/new-to-tmobile-internet-questions-about-devices-signal-logging-into-gateway-page-358701Ver1like0ComentariosRe: Latest Gateway Firmware Discussion
That sounds like a vpn issue to me. I use Express vpn at times and you do see some of a dip but that's normal with a VPN. But what you're describing doesn't sound normal at all so I would suggest possibly maybe trying another VPN or checking your settings in Nord. The one thing I am curious about though is you mentioned that your firmware is on 0178 correct? If that's the case how did your device upgrade? Did it do it itself or did you have to do something? I'm still showing .0168 for my firmware version.8Visto1like0Comentarios
