    What tmobile home gateway do you have? 

    does it have ethernet out? If so, you should be able to connect it. 

    Easiest route would be to put the netgear router in AP mode.

      A small amount of DIY research is in order.

      Find the manual for your gateway on the T-mobile website and do some reading.

      Recently setup a Verizon Fixed Wireless (cell) Gateway. Rural area with no cable and miserable DSL. The owner was not comfortable with the Tech feel of SpaceX. The new gateway had two Ethereal output ports. A new R8000 was configured as an Access Point with Ethernet input and two new SSIDs for the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands. The whole family was thrilled. Remember the DSL reference point!
