Is there anyway to use a separate Wifi mesh router (eg an Orbi) with the new TMO-G4SE
I’m in my 14 day free trial. I’d like to replace my cox modem with Tmobile’s unit feeding into my Orbi mesh network router. From what I can see and have read TMobile app won’t let you turn of the router functionality to just use it as a modem. Correct? I’ve read some suggestions to use the T-Mobile box as-is and just connect it to an external router using Ethernet. Anyone here doing this for awhile without issue? Don’t things get messed up with the external router and T-Mobile router allocating DHCP addresses? Saw another suggestion to use the setup above, but rename the T-Mobile Wi-Fi network different than the external router Wi-Fi network and only connect to the external router Wi-Fi. Any doing this without an issue? Thank you for your time and experience…Solved2.6KViews2likes13Comments
