I have had Home Internet for about a year and I have been able to use it for both work and gaming. However, within the last few weeks, I received a “internet required to connect to servers” error when playing on GTA V, Red Dead Redemption, ARK or any other game with online features. I have changed gateways and even replaced one without any luck. I have already reached out to Sony and one of the game’s helpdesks and they both state that it is an internet provider issue. T-Mobile doesn't have any support for gamers according to one of their reps so I am frustratingly out of options. Any additional help is greatly appreciated. I am looking for other internet providers in the meantime.9.7KViews1like16CommentsHome Internet Gaming Problem
I recently started testdriving T-Mobile home internet at my house, and it's worked great for everything except games, where I'm having a weird issue with some of them. When I try to play Apex Legends on PC, the game will connect and play really smooth for anywhere from 1-3minutes, and then all communication will be lost, which will take 20 seconds for the game to kick me out to the main menu. If I go back into the game from the main menu, it'll work fine untill the 1-3minutes elapses. During all of this my PC never loses connection, and this issue occurs over wifi and ethernet. This issue probably does not lie with the game as this issue does not occur with other ISPs, and it did not coincide with an update. A similar issue is happening with Splatoon 3 on the Nintendo Switch, where the game will play superb for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before dropping the connection. Is this a known issue with the service or gateway, is there anyway I can debug my connection, and does anyone know anyway that could possibly remedy the situation? I'd love to keep the home internet, but one of the main things I use the internet for is games, meaning this service wouldn't work for me.26KViews19likes97CommentsWorld of tanks not working
World of Tanks does not connect and I have tried everything from uninstalling the game/reinstalling, uninstall norton360 and reinstall, uninstall nvidia drivers and reinstall. It plain will not connect at all.. World of warships works though. Weird. Help!!! I have the gateway connected a EERO mesh network. I reset the network too. No help there. last resort is unplug the gateway and boot cold but I doubt that will work too. Solutions anyone? Ed635Views0likes9CommentsMLB The Show does not work on my T-mobile 5g internet box.
MLB The Show does not work on my T-mobile 5g internet box. It will say “Challenge Failed” when trying to play an online match. The game works perfectly fine when i bring my xbox to my parents house. But when i bring it back to my wifi, it doesn’t work. I test the NAT type until it’s open, I reset the router, etc. I’ve done everything I can think of and there no solution. Does anyone have this same problem? This is the only game that won’t work either. This and NBA 2k brought me some issues. But i can play COD or shooters on my wifi… but cross play sports games seem to bring the issue6.1KViews3likes21CommentsGetting a connection to server timed out code net error on ps5
It's not for all games but for some like apex legends, the games unplayable, keep getting the error. I tried everything until I turned on my phones Hotspot and worked like a charm. So it's most certainly due to tmobile home internet. Hotspot istoo slow and not enough data to use in place of wifi. Anyone else have this issue and a fix?81Views1like0CommentsPS5 internet connection issues
I recently switched my wifi from optimum to the Tmobile 5g Gateway. It connects to my phone and laptop and works wonderful but it won’t seem to connect to my playstation no matter what I do. Ive tried switching the WPA version, the frequency band, both the network name and password and It refuses to connect to my system. What should I do app ???4.5KViews0likes5CommentsXbox Gaming Connection
I recently set up the brand new white tower 5g home internet device. I was playing Call of Duty online and I noticed that randomly everyone would skip for a split second and it keeps happening throughout the game. My ping stays the same which is odd. My average download speed is around 300 and upload around 7-9. I checked to make sure the game servers were not having any issues which they weren’t. Any suggestions as to what is going on? Is this common?200Views0likes0CommentsTmobile gateway latency problems with gaming
I have aArcadyan KVD21 Gateway and I usually have between 40-80 ping while gaming which is fine but my house has a tv and whenever that tv is turned on my ping just started going to 200 , 400 , or even 600 it just spikes a lot and makes gaming impossible unless its turned on and turning it off isn’t a problem solver because there’s still people in my household that use it so I was wondering if there’s a workaround for this like if there’s some setting I can turn on or i dont know i also have an asus wifi router that i bought for no reason it seems since i thought it’d help with this problem but it didn’t really82Views0likes0CommentsGaming Wifi Extender
So, I live in a one story house with some buddies and we got a TMobile Home Internet Router in the middle of the house to help provide everyone with a decent connection. I’m on the far left side of the house behind walls and doors and when I game on my PS5 the wifi sucks, but when I put my PS5 in the room with the router and connect with an ethernet cable it works fine. I’m wondering what extender I can get that can wirelesslyconnect to the router to boost the signal to my side of the house then I can connect an ethernet cable to that extender to get a good connection for gaming.Solved452Views0likes6CommentsWill T Mobile Fix The NAT Type Issue For Gamers?
From what I have seen, T Mobile is having an issue with gamers Because Of they’re Strict NAT Types and no way of accessing more Network settings. I myself Is also facing the same issue where only one person Can play at a time. This Disappoints because I can’tplay Some Games on my PS5because someone is on it, sometimes it comes to the point where no one can play These games unless they Use a Lan Cable.And even then only one person can play on it. Even though T Mobile isn’t meant for gaming This only makes it worse for their costumersthat are gamers and face this issue. If anyone knows a way around it please let me know.628Views1like0Comments
