Re: Home Internet - force firmware update?

Are you using ethernet or WiFi between your devices andyour ASUS router? (We're still using our reliable ASUS RT-N66U to connect to our ATT DSL modem because Hulu Live TV through Roku seestheTM Home Internet as a forbidden mobile hotspot.) Yes they always been active.Re: High-Speed Internet Gateway does not work with some apps on T-mobile Home Wifi Internet
The DNS is not the greatest but does work with a router between the Trashcan and your home network. Very important that you turn off ALL DEVICES after setup and restart in this order… ALL DEVICES ON THE NETWORK NEED TO BE SET TO AUTO DNS Trashcan (takes along time to fully boot give it 10 mins) Now your router (same thing give it time to fully boot) Now you can start all other devices on the network This way they pull all the new DNS info into the devices. If this is not completed in this order your devices will have all kinds of different DNS settings. Router Setup factory reset setup WAN setup lan setup IPv6 Now you can either disable or run Pass-through if your router has this option both work The Passthrough option will give you IPv6 verification on ipv6-test.com Once complete restart the network as described at the beginning Yes I had problems with web sites not loading Amazon was one now it loads every time. I have found that the Trashcan's web interface is better than using the crappy app but it very slow at loading the info so it seems like it's not online or loading. Give it more time…It seems that the T-Mobile branding has slowed the device interface to a crawl too. Last thing Thanks T-Mobile for turning your subscribers into your beta testers for this device!Re: Home Internet - force firmware update?

I have no 5G so B66 is the only band I'm connected to but never have experienced packet loss till this update. @rangerrick337: In your browser go to 192.168.12.1 to login to the modem/router. See if the System|Upgrade button will take you from 1.2003.03.0143 to1.2003.03.0168 We've had ours since late Feb. It's on1.2003.03.0168, but I can't remember if I did the manual update or if it happened after a reboot. @wildchld: What utility are you using that shows jitter and packet loss? I started getting the packet loss when I got .0178 never was on .0168. That's a Speedtest from inside my Asus router…Re: 5G Home Internet Service Equipment
Try removing the useless battery then do a factory reset and see if a lot of issues go away. No Ethernet connected when doing a factory reset Use the bottom Ethernet connection instead of the top. If you don't use the WiFi disable all 3 I don't use the crap app anymore. Keep the admin password default that way you can reconfigure from Ethernet (password saved) After a reboot or factory reset it does take a while for all the info to display give it time.Re: Home Internet - force firmware update?

No port forwarding. Plz fix!
intel wrote: My background is in IT / networking and I started using Tmo Home Internet for the past 2 weeks. The router being shipped today to customers is missing very important features for power users - it actually broke my ability to remotely access my home via direct-connection using public IPv6 and IPv4 that I used on comcast. Contacting support for help is pretty much useless, although I have raised a few tickets regarding the major issues affecting me since switching ISPs, namely: Unable to ping my IPv6 WAN address given by T-mobile (to remotely monitor my internet connection) Unable to remotely access my home via my VPN server which listens to connections on the WAN IPv6 address (again, T-mobile is filtering ALL my incoming traffic - comcast, att fiber, other major players in the market don't do this filtering to endpoints except for spam port 25) Connecting to a VPN server hosted on the internet is unreliable and unstable. T-mobile does not offer IPv6 Prefix Delegation (comcast has it, att fiber does too) I've spent the majority of my time trying to figure out ways to make this work. Most folks out there are blaming the Nokia router firmware which is really locked down by T-mobile, so being the IT engineer I pretend to be I purchased a Netgear LAX20 which is T-mobile and AT&T certified - I swapped SIMs for my Home internet service and tested both. Even with a router that I fully control, with firewall disabled and allowing WAN icmp/ping responses T-mobile seems to continue to filter traffic (even pings!) incoming towards my service equipment…to make a fair comparison I got an AT&T SIM card and repeated the tests. On AT&T I can ping and access my device remotely when it is on the AT&T LTE network on the same Netgear LAX20. Decided to post here to vent and share some findings, as this is somewhat frustrating that other LTE carriers that do not offer 'home internet' service do allow you to control and manage your network as you see fit while the new "home internet" service does not give you any control at all. Those users who wish to be able to remotely manage their smart home should perhaps stay away for now until T-mobile decides to do the right thing which is for "home internet" service subscribers to have different security network rules than cellphones on the network. T-mobile please fix your business model for this new service, starting with adding the ability to request zero network filtering for home internet subscribers and the ability to get IPv6 prefix delegated. With theLAX20 did you try fast.t-mobile.com APN? I'm thinking it's the fbb.home APN. ThxRe: VPN issues
Some Rando wrote: I had this issue and resolved it with my job's IT team. You have to change everything to just IPv4. I am a complete layperson, but here are the steps to resolve for me, using Windows 10 and a CISCO VPN: Remove IPv6 from your Wifi: Go to Control Panel Click "Network and Sharing" Click the hyperlink after "Connections" for the section named after your WIFI Hub Click the "Properties" button in the bottom left of the pop-up box De-select "Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)" Remove IPv6 from your VPN: Click Start Click Settings (looks like a gear) Click Network and Internet Select "Change Adapter Options" Right click on your VPN Select Properties De-select "Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)" I know that the Wifi and VPNPropertiesscreen can be accessed either way, but I wanted to show that there are two ways of accessing them. Hope this helps someone out there! So I tried your IT's suggestions but I have aAsus RT-N66U between my Trashcan and home network with 3rd party software on it but if anyone has a device like this between there's the can go into settings and turn off IPv6 on the router completely. The VPN should work but it's slow. Also this trashcan just plain sucks for pulling in a signal. This is what I have to do to get 3 bars really T-Mobile I can see the frigging tower! The speedtest is with IPv6 turned off when it's turned back on, ping time increases, download increases, and upload stays about the same. But then no VPN. 1 simple firmware update adding bridge mode in and this piece of ---- may be worth it. More to come...
