So, I brought the Extender into the same room as the Gateway got it to connect and then took it back to the shop, plugged it in and sure enough, Success!!! Reliable Internet service has been restored. I also can no longer longer log-in to the Extender itself for some reason. Initially, I did have some problems getting the Extender to connect to the T-Mobile Gateway. So, I purchased a Belkin USB-C to Network adapter and there we go, a 3rd Ethernet port. Ah, but, we also have a USB-C port beneath the two Ethernet ports. So, I wanted to be able to do the same thing with the T-Mobile Gateway.īut, we only have 2 Ethernet ports rather than 3.

The Extender is connected to the router via an Ethernet cord and using the Extender “Access Point” feature. The Netgear extender is located in my shop about 50 yards (more or less) away from the router and, has always provided reliable Internet service to the shop.

AT&T’s router had 4 Ethernet connections, three of which I used, one for my Tablo TV setup, one for the DVR that my home security cameras are connected to and, the third, my shop. Thus far, my speed tests show the T-Mobile service is running between 5 and 10 times faster than AT&T’s advertised rate but, the real test, for me at least, was whether I could connect all my devices. Of course, I’m in no way obligated to use AT&T’s email but, for me the two are inexplicably linked.Īnyways, my search led me to find T-Mobile’s Home Internet service. For quite awhile now I’ve wanted (a) faster internet and (b) to get away from AT&T’s email service due to the large amount of spam and junk mail I receive on a daily basis. I was very interested in this discussion as I have an “old” (2015) Netgear AC1200 (EX6150) WIFI Range Extender which I had been using with my AT&T “Internet 24” (24 MBPS) service. Sorry its a little lengthy, but I hope this helps some If you have guests over, or excessive devices exceeding 10, then connect through the router and it ignores that limit. This also helps you avoid the 10 device limit on your T-Mobile hub. This is for all of your legacy devices to connect to.ĥ.) Once the connection is established between the hub and the router, reboot both.Ħ.) Connect to router SSID and test internet. It turns the router into a “Core router”, and the hub acts as a “WAN Edge”, which is the gateway to the internet.Ĥ.) Create a wifi SSID inside the router, with passphrase and security. What this does, is allows the T-mobile hub to act as a gateway, and pass internet traffic through the router to legacy devices. So the work around I used, which I imagine most people here with legacy devices could use is this:ġ.) Get a router with 2.4/5Ghz capabilitiesĢ.) Take one of the ethernet ports on the back of T-Mobile Hub, and plug directly into the routerģ.) Go into the admin portion of the router and select “Bridge mode”, and leave the settings as default. When I attempted to connect the MyQ Smart Hub to T-Mobile’s Internet Hub, I see a device compatibility issue. But, what I see is many others having similar issues with other devices. I searched around to see if anyone else had this problem(which it seems no one does), but I could not find an answer. What happened to me was that when I switched providers and gave up my old provider equipment, my MyQ Smart Garage hub stopped working with my security system.

I recently switched internet providers, and went full on T-Mobile, as I have been with them for almost 20 years. I just wanted to share what I did to get the hub to work with other devices, and why I had to do it this way in the first place.
