I am having the same problem. Unit appears to be connected to Tmobile, lights are green and in the web page says connected, but cannot hook up to my orbi router, tried bridge and router mode, tried hookin a pc directly to the LM1200 and got an ip when in router mode, but still cannot access any web sotes

Terribly annoying.
I'm curious if this may be related to the type of SIM inside of the device. When I ordered my SIM from T-Mobile I spoke with the rep over the phone and requested a SIM for this specific device, which she confirmed would work based on the IMEI. I've seen talk around there being distinctions between how T-Mobile has our SIMs classified as either BYOD or hotspot (I could be slightly off on the two options).
How did you get your SIM?
Additional info I have mine added as an additional line on my account on the 500MB/month data plan. Southeastern US.
