T-Mobile blocking websites?
I've been unable to access my Comcast e-mail for the last few days when I'm on the T-Mobile 5g network. I keep getting a message that there is a log in error due to a temporarily blacklisted IP address. I have no problem accessing my email when I'm on my home wi-fi or any other wi-fi network, for that matter. Xfinity said it wasn't their problem because it works while on wi-fi. T-Mobile customer service was very nice, but couldn't help me. Any suggestions?
Auto-connect internet to phone
I was just checking to see if there is any progress on this? There was a post about this two years ago with no actual fix . . . just a workaround. I’ve reset/restarted everything and don’t want to get a wifi booster just to create a workaround. I called customer service about a year ago and they said it was Apple’s fault (it’s not) and that they’d get back to me (they never did). They said “that’s new” but it obviously wasn’t, based on this forum. 😉 It would be really nice if my phone (currently iPhone 16/iOS 18.5) could just auto-connect without sacrificing privacy like it used to with my previous internet service. It still auto-connects everywhere else and has through two upgrades, so I’m pretty sure it isn’t the phone. 🤞🏼hoping for an actual solution after two years?
New Gateway - No Internet on Phone
I upgraded to a Galaxy S25+. Came home and connected to my Gateway I'd had since 2023. During my upgrade, store people said I could upgrade my Gateway for free, and that'd even set it up so that it was the same name and password. Went in a week later and traded Gateways. Came home and the Gateway connects to all my devices, except the phone. It actually does connect, but it's Connected Without Internet. I've tried resetting Wifi settings, cleared cache, and pretty much all the routine stuff I could think of. Still nothing. Phone's Wifi works as I was able to connect to old Gateway as well as other Wifi. Just this new Gateway it refuses to work with.
5G Gateways - New VPN Issues with G4SE and G4AR
Corporate VPNs are now being impacted by the G4AR and G4SE models, of which were once known as formerly compatible models with the VPN. My understanding is the MTU size on other models, such as the Sagecom FAST 5688W, were not compatible with corporate VPNs due to their lower MTU size. The G4SE was always hit or miss, but the G4AR had a track record of 100% success. As of mid-May 2025, we have multiple reports that neither is working for multiple people. Our corporate VPN MTU size remains unchanged. Was there a recent update? I assume there was a firmware update for the G4AR that decreased the MTU size.
Making Calls Through Your Samsung Tablet via Cell Phone.
I tried for over 10 hours here and there to connect my Tab S8+ to my S22 Ultra to send and receive calls through the tablet via Samsung's connectivity feature. Following all of the instructions it will never work on the tablet. I called T-Mobile twice. I was propositioned to purchasing a sim card for the tablet. This is not needed according to Samsung's precise instructions. (I posted to Samsung their software does not work.) The second time I called T-Mobile I told them I'd call the appropriate US Department regarding dishonesty to trick me to purchase more services rather than just allowing the Samsung software to work as it was intended. After the call with T-Mobile, I can magically make calls through my tablet when tethered to my phone without a sim card. Interesting well it works when distinct pressure is applied.T mobile internet for home
My home internet sucks so much, I used to have around 99 MBPS, now I'm running at .5 or lower, I'm paying a monthly fee for something I can't use, because it's so slow all I get is a red circle showing it's down loading but it never finishes so I'm forced to just change channels to watch dish, because I can't stream any shows.Need Help with Home Internet Issue
Hi all, I'm new to T-Mobile Home Internet and also new to this community. I’ve been having some trouble with my internet connection lately and I’m not sure what to do. Can someone please point me in the right direction for basic troubleshooting? I’d really appreciate any advice or tips you can share. Thank you so much!Phone signal is very weak in my house
The T-Mobile phone signal in my home is consistently weak, with the signal indicator frequently displaying 0 or 1 bar. As a result, I often experience difficulties in receiving or making calls at home. Even when connectivity is established, the audio quality tends to be unstable. I am currently exploring solutions to enhance the signal strength within my home. To my knowledge, T-Mobile previously offered free signal boosters for areas with weak coverage; however, this option appears to no longer be available. After conducting research online, I have identified several potential solutions for improving phone signal strength, including CellSpot, Femtocells, and standalone signal boosters. I would like to understand the advantages and disadvantages of each option. Could you recommend the most suitable choice based on your expertise?
