Use Netgear Router with T-Mobile Home Internet
I have recently replaced Spectrum with T-Mobile Home internet and need to know how to use my router with the T-Mobile interface
What router do you have?
And what Tmobile hotspot/home internet device did you get?
Im trying to connect my R7800 router to a new T Mobile G5 Home Internet Gateway. Previously, I used a Cable modem with Comcast.
When connecting to the T-Mobile Gateway to the WAN Port of the R7800 I see ethernet speeds 1/10th of what a wifi connection to the T Mobile gateway produces.
What are the optimum R7800 settings to connect to the gateway?
Does the G5 have a built-in wireless router? If so you will need to set it to modem only when connected to the Nighthawk router.

If that isn't possible – not all gateways allow modem only mode – an alternative is to put the R7800 into wireless access point (AP) mode.
But then beware this:
