Re: Home Internet Gaming Problem
Got off the phone with another T-Mobile tech and they more or less said, gamers are screwed and you're better off going with another ISP. They are aware of all the issues with their service and multi-player gaming. X-Box I guess is the worst. Issues of Latency over cellular networksare compounded with their Dynamic IP architecture baked into their modems. Their approach is to workwith service providers like Microsoft and other big companies (he mentioned Hulu) to better accommodate their structure rather than the other way around. Good luck with that! Sounds like rearchitecting to accommodate Static IP is a major lift. He didn't mention anything about reverting to a previous state when it was working, but I get the feeling there is no going back. I think they'll need to see a mass exodus of gamers and see the lost revenue before prioritizing/investing in a fix. It a shame.5Visto1like0ComentariosRe: Home Internet Gaming Problem

I've tried 2 different Nokia modems, and even went in store to exchange for a different model with an LCD on the front, model FAST 5688W. Support confirmed this new unit is on the latest Firmware. We have tried running multiple streaming services, multiple security cameras, but as soon as a game connects the 30-40 minute countdown to loosing service starts. My first ticket into support was in November 2022 and I am still having this issue in January 2023 but they have not been able to connect this issue in the forms to my issue. Going to try and use Express VPN or something to make a Static IP and see if that helps. ttyler83, any luck with Express VPN? Our issues are isolated to the X-Box. Gaming on PC works fine.3Visto0likes0ComentariosRe: Home Internet Gaming Problem
I talked with a T-mobile rep and they are aware of this issue but are still trying I troubleshooting. Related to a firmware update they pushed out to the routers. Much of the problem he thinks is traceable to how the Dynamic IP behaves that various gaming consoles and websites don't like. The tech agreed that much of the problem might be solved if T-Mobile gave consumers Static IP options (available only to Businesses right now). Fingers crossed that they'll get a fix out soon because everything else with T-mobile internet has been great for us!14Visto2likes0ComentariosRe: Home Internet Gaming Problem
Same issue with me disconnecting with server for Minecraft and Star Wars Battlefront and Apex and probably others I haven't tried. Looking for other ISPs because when you call T-Mobile they have no clue what you are talking about and I don't know whether they are even monitong this forum. Feel kind of helpless.…9Visto1like0Comentarios
