Bad Audio on this video. Lots of hissing and static being picked up by the mic. I am trying to do this exact thing using an OpenWrt router but when I hook up the router to the gateway but, when I do I only get 20 mbps instead of the 700 mbps I see when connecting directly to the gateway.
I got the cheetah router and I got to say 4 times the speed I was getting! Plus low ping in the 30-40 consistently.
Awesome
Sorry but need ask a bit alternative question maybe... do you use it directly without provided gateway?
@@Rene-kg7pf I have the SIM card from the tmobile router inside the cheetah router. No need to use the tmobile router anymore.
@alexg97343 nice yeah that's what I wondered thanks alot
My brain hurts but I will give it a try Thanks 🤗
It’s utterly senseless that the gateways have LAN ports which users are most likely to connect alternative wifi hardware to, yet no convenient software switch to turn off the gateway’s wifi. Just reinforces my belief that T-Mo intended their service for single-occupancy, small dwellings.
You can turn off the broadcast but not the actual WiFi which I agree doesn’t make sense but I just kept the broadcast on and made it a funny WiFi name I don’t use
Here's how to turn off the radios th-cam.com/video/Qy-f8xfPk4s/w-d-xo.html
Great video.Very well explained. I have the T Mobil business 5G gateway. I also have a left over Arris sim gateway I had with Verizon. The old gateway seemed to be superior to the T Mobil. I am toying with the settings to see if I can use it as a wi-fi range extender . I would love to see an in depth screen of you going through the menu breaking down the settings while sharing your screen.
I am curious if I could "clone" my t Mobil router with the Arris?
Mr Nater Tater you have been sooo much help. I finally got my WaveForm 4x4 installed and it's great! Question: when I do a speed test the first time I get in the 80's down and 20's up. That's 4 time what I was getting so no complaints there. When I start another speed test immediately after the first one I always get more than 2X the speed and sometimes 3X. Why does this happen?
@markmckinney2183 the modem sometimes "decides" to do additional bands or carrier aggregation once traffic is moving. Which gateway are you using?
@@NaterTater I have the T-Mobile TMO-G4AR White gateway and I have disabled the WiFi and it's connected to my Linksys Router. Right now all connection are wireless. I plan to change the PC's to ethernet.
@@NaterTaterhoping you can help
Thanks so much I kept trying to do it myself for hours 😭
Great video as always thanks 👍
You're welcome!
Well, no passthrough or gateway mode is a dealbreaker for me. I'm using Verizon 5G home internet right now, but kind of wanted T-Mobile since our cellphones are on their service. Do the T-Mobile gateways at least have a DMZ setting?
No and that's not a limitation of the gateways. Its a limitation of the t-mobile network.
Great video Nate! Thanks for your content. I have a signal booster and get good reception at home, but I still get very fluctuating speeds in different areas of my house. Would you still recommend the Cheetah router, or would other router solutions would help speeds?
Been considering a mesh router solution… anyone got some tips for my scenario?
Again, thanks for your videos Nate!
First off have you tried the home internet with the booster off? For your varied speed in your house that sounds like it is due to your wifi and a mesh setup would help with that. A Cheetah would help get you faster speed close to the router but if you have dead wifi zone in the house those would likely still exist.
Which TMO Home Internet modem is the best? I still have the trashcan and am wondering if I should see about getting an update.
I've had overall good luck with the newest Sagemcom Fast 5688W Gateway, I turned off the 2.4Ghz Wifi and just left the 5G Wifi for troubleshooting, and then I use a TP-Link Deco X20 4 base mesh WiFi setup as the WiFi on the Sagemcom router is a bit weak for a medium to larger size home, even a single story home like mine. I'm in SC near the border of GA, and I'm seeing on average without modding it for external antennas 400Mbps - 600Mbps + down/50Mbps - 150Mbps+ Up with latency between 16ms - 60ms but it's not perfect as I've had a few rare times it's gone next to nothing, but it's not running hot as the clear window it's facing out of has a vent register under it keeping the temp regulated as checked with my thermal gun.
He tested them here a while back and saw pretty much no difference.
how can i hook up internet in my pole barn 125 ft away if I have a T Mobile gateway and an old Net gear router? I ran a Ethernet cable already between my house and the pole barn.
@michaelwas8549 easiest is just plug the ethernet at the house to the tmobile gateway and the ethernet at the barn to the blue WAN port of the barn router and go through the netgear setup.
@@NaterTater Thanks, actually did that and it works, so that's awesome.
I found this video and by shutting off the wireless in my Gateway and adding the ASUS Zenwi AX mesh system my speed jumped immediately. All was well for two weeks when suddenly my speeds couldn't get above 90 Mbps. I connected via ethernet to the gateway and would see speeds around 275 Mbps but through the ASUS - only 90s. I disconnected the mesh system, turned on the wireless in the gateway and was back to 275 Mbps. I can't figure out what is going on. I've reset the ASUS to factory defaults, but nothing changed - still around 90 rather than the 300+ Mbps i saw the first two weeks. Any thoughts on what might be happening?
What about adding a mesh system?
Hey Nate, I installed a Deco system in AP mode and went from a max of 200-300mb to a max of 700+. That's all I did.
@@jneal99 great!
Would my nighthawk work with the new tmobile modem(don't think it's considered a modem)
Great video, but how do you turn off DHCP for the Arcadyan G4AR?
You can't
Thanks for getting back with me. Do you know if the Arcadyan G4AR is locked to a specific tower by TMO? I just got ours set up but it keeps locking onto a signal from a tower in my mailing zip code, but there is a different tower that is physically closer to my residence that the gateway placement tool keeps pointing me towards.
It will pick the strongest signal. Closest is not always the strongest. Are you using the PCI or CGI to identify the tower it is connected to?
Using CGI. Connection has stabilized at Good and download speeds are awesome, but upload runs between 0.5 and 2.6 Mbps. Any suggestions to improve uploads?

Sorry to ask to many questions but I have verizon cube.but I'm upgrading to a different services can I use my verizon gateway as a wifi Access point to the new gateway I'm getting?
@trynottodie488 typically you have to return the verizon gateway when you cancel your service. But even if you kept it the answer is no since it doesn't have a WAN ethernet port.
@NaterTater ok thank you..and no I don't have to because I go through a third-party service but the box is rebanded but same device....and thank you soo much for the reply your video help me out soooo much
Quick question nater, Should i setup my brand new ASUS AX-3000 by itself first?
Or
Just disable my wifi on my Sagemcom, then reboot Sagemcom, then hookup to brand new ASUS out the box with ethernet, fire them up and then proceed to setup the ASUS?
Which should i do? Or does it matter? Like u said im sure the Sagemcom fast 5688W will automatically read/recognize the new ASUS Router and vise versa. Appreciate the vids, lots of great content. 👍👍
I would setup the Asus after you turn off wifi on the Sagemcom and after plug you have the Asus plugged in via ethernet to the Sagemcom.
@NaterTater thanks nater for the help, Respect to u Sir.. U are doin God's work my man, saving us from the chains tmobile has restricted us with. I should have the option to change any setting on this tmobile router I want to Givin I pay $50-$60 bucks a month for the service. I pay just to be a prisoner of No connection/setting options. Lol. Blows my mind. Enough ramble. Have a awesome day. Stay Blessed 🙌
Would like to use cheetah as modem only and another wifi router. What settings would you recommend to get ip4/6 working well and max speed? Wifi router as access point only and let cheetah route or wifi router route?
Hello Nate! Planning to buy a router for my T-Mobile Home Internet. What's the best router can you recommend thats $100-200 price range?
amzn.to/3qd1XPX
@NaterTater would u happen to have a video on how to hook the router u linked☝️above. If not, is it possible u could do a small video on how to hook it up. I have the Sagemcom fast 5688W and I would like to hook it up to the linked router. I am asking cause I am not tech savvy in that department. .
Hi! Any tips for using T-Mobile home internet in a metal building? We are in the woods- according to the T-Mobile coverage map we are “5G Extended”. Windows are all on one side of the building- our placement of the arcadayn in a window is therefore limited. There is a second story though. The metal building is located in a thick wooded area.
Full metal buildings block the signal, your only real solution is get an antenna mounted outside.
I've used the mimo waveform 4x4 external antennae. Works really well. You have to doctor 4 wires in the guts of the tmobile device but it works well. Supposedely the newer tmobile gateways are coming up with a way to connect external antennaes without needing to doctor the device
Hi Nate, I have an unrelated question. I wonder if you’ve observed that the T-Mobile KVD21 gateway superimposes an unnamed WiFi channel over the T-Mobile active WiFi channel? I see this on channels in both the 2.4 and 5G bands. Using a WiFi analyzer, the superimposed channel is usually about the same amplitude but sometimes a bit lower or higher in amplitude than the active channel. The superimposed channel appears and disappears but is present more than half of the time. I'm sure the superimposed channel is being transmitted from the T-Mobile Gateway, because it gets stronger the closer I get to the gateway. As an example, the active channel could be ch 2 in the 2.4G band. I had T-Mobile send me a replacement gateway and it does the same thing. I talked to T-Mobile customer service twice, but they didn't know what I was talking about. I haven't found any information on the internet regarding this. Maybe it's some kind of normal function, but it seems like it could be causing some interference. Thanks, Brian
Hi Brian, yes I think that is the mesh backhaul channel that is on but never used since they dont have satellites or mesh supported.
I have the same gateway. How do I turn off the WiFi on this router? The browser is view only and in the app, the only option is to delete the network. Any help would be appreciated as I am setting up my Netgear nighthawk mesh router and satellites (formally on Comcast).
So does an external router fix the speed and ping on the T-mobile wireless home internet? Is this better than doing an external antenna on the device itself?
no and no
@@NaterTater Thanks. What is the best way to pick up a better signal, speed and ping? Is that using an external antenna that you have to take apart the can?
@anthonynardella8907 th-cam.com/video/ZEyzXWjsVAI/w-d-xo.html yes gateway placement and then external antenna are the most sure fire way to improve. An easier (but more costly) way is to get a 3rd party gateway.
Hey Nate, I recently followed your guide on how to cut off the wifi on the gateway to setup a router to it. The wifi will work for my phone devices but when I try to connect a game console to it it shows there’s no connection?
Adding router would or would not allow using openDNS ?
hello, I recently got my gateway but when I tried to enter the gateway's setting on my computer i only see really really basic information like wifi signal, connection status, and device info. Literally no option, no 2.4g or 5g settings, no settings at all. I called tmobil ro ask how i could get the full setting and they told that they don't allow that anymore for " reasons " .... so yea i cant connect my router. i have no access to turn off the wifi on my gateway
I cover all that on my channel. Links are in this video's description including for a video on how to turn off your t-mobile gateway's wifi.
@@NaterTater found it !!! Thank you for the info
@@NaterTater I have tried turning off the wifi with the shell script and still have been unable to do so. Tried it twice on my pc and tried it on my husband's mac computer. I run it all as shown and still, it won't do it.
So, i have this t- mobile gateway, can i hook up a wireless bridge to get internet out to my barn? Or would i have to hook up a different router like you just did? I need the wifi out there:so far that sounded like the best way
A bridge will work well th-cam.com/video/NBDgrmSoTPA/w-d-xo.html but most p2p bridges dont send out wifi signal do if you need wifi at your barn you'll still need a router/AP out there.
Is there a way to eliminate double nat? I have 4 routers all using openWRT. Three are in the bridge mode. I am wondering if I can set the first one in the bridge mode also and eliminate double nat.
t-mobile's CGNAT infrastructure forces a double nat setup
hey everyone any reason why im unable to hook my re7000 extender to tmobile 5g home internet.
How do you turn off the wifi on the gateway and still be able to use the internet from it via the router?
You plug your router in via ethernet to the t-mobile gateway
Ok question I got can I put my t mobile sim on there and use this as my router
Yes, th-cam.com/video/mj0b4FnJen8/w-d-xo.html
Hey Nate love your videos ! I have a power question. Can I power my new to me TMHI from a Poe splitter with a usb c that is connected to a power injector? Would a 15v splitter work? Thanks so much!
Yes you can power it with a poe splitter. I assume a 15v splitter would work but I have not tested it.
@@NaterTater thank you sir !!
I have a question Nate. I have T-Mobile 5g gateway with the newest router they have out. When gaming everything is great. Good latency good connection speeds are a little slow but that’s expected. How can I solve the issue of when someone else is trying to stream on the internet and it causes my latency to spike tremendously. I thought about getting a different router and enabling qos but that won’t work due to double nat. My area doesn’t have anything better as far as internet please help me out.
router with QoS, double NAT shouldnt be an issue. TMHI is already double NAT.
Can I run the cheetah router with the waveform connections or no bcuz I have the 4x4 one
Of course! Makes an awesome setup. th-cam.com/video/3belU1bmEh0/w-d-xo.html
Ok. the problem I am having is the dynamic Ip. Some of the banks in my area do not support Dynamic Ip addresses. I talked to T-Mobile about the problem, they said I needed to set up either a router or an extender because either one would give me a static Ip and should fix the problem. If I understood you correctly. You said that it won't work. If I am misunderstanding, please explain how if works.
There are two main types of IP, WAN and LAN. WAN is internet/public facing and LAN is local to your house. I had some issues at the beginning of using TMHI from some financial website that wanted some additional verification to "prevent fraud" that was likely tied to the way tmobile does WAN IP addresses. After verifying a few times i didnt have an issue again. I've never heard of a bank not allowing a "dynamic IP" but I have seen extra verification steps. A router wont address that.
@@NaterTater That's Kinda what i thought too. May I ask what kind of verification you did? that way I can go to the bank and show them what I have. The bank I am wanting to switch to, their system will not recognize dynamic ips for some reason. I tried to open an account with them last year and was not able to log into my account because they could not verify where the Ip address was coming from. if I can get the problem resolved I would move to that bank.
Hey nate, Ive setup the Archer AX1500 router from tplink to the arcadian, but with the HINT app i dont think its making a difference. ive followed the video in making the SSID of the tmobile 5g home internet hidden but it doesnt seem to make a difference, despite being hard wired. am i doing something wrong?
Try turning off the TMHI wifi, hiding it does not stop the signal. It just disable the wifi name from being shared.
Good info, You said you could move the sim to another device. I tried to move my sim to an Orbi mesh device, it did not work. Look like they have a special sim for the sag device? Have you been able to move a sim card to another device????
It takes some tricks. See my playlist of using 3rd party, namely the "unmentionable" one: 5G Cellular Router Modem Gateways - Tested and Reviewed: th-cam.com/play/PL8d9FovK2dNS2ihT56gySpU49V4kRHn_U.html
How can we get local internet search results on a verizon 5G home router?
Is it better speedwise to connect industrial celluar router via the wan port? Or remove sim card and insert and use it that way? What do you think? Thanks for your time!
I'm not sure I understand your question. If it you want to know if its better to use the stock gateway or the chester cheetah with a SIM in it, the Cheetah with SIM is faster.
@@NaterTater Thanks!! Sorry for any confusion. I have a industrial router that takes cellular sim not a cheatah. Is the speed faster with tmobile standard router or using my own router. I think you said yes it is better with my own router.
What router do you recommend for gaming? My ping is high and gets spikes often.
There are really a ton of options. Many good. Some bad. Depends on price point and what you prefer. Here's one: amzn.to/3RXha1o
@@NaterTater I don’t mind paying that much if it’s actually better than Google nest and other cheap ones. Thanks!
I keep having an issue with my TMHI whenever i move the modem my router which is a Unifi UDR loses connection and i cant seem to figure out a guaranteed way to restore it. Obviously ive tried turning it on and off both the modem and router but nothing seems to fix it. would it be some setting im missing?
Thats and odd one. Not sure.
Love the channel! I am ending a contract with Comcast... I have had my own modem and wireless router, and then out in the garage I had another router that was a wireless access point so internet signal was meshed so to speak and seamless. Can the same be done with this T Mobile device? I just got a new T-Mobile to try and it is white in color. Curios if I can have just one network like the comcast setup. -Thx-Keith
Yes you can likely unplug the ethernet from your comcast modem and plug it into the tmobile gateway. Leave your routers as they are.
@@NaterTater I will give it a try and let you know, it sure would be nice not having to change all of this… I have a few Roku type of TVs and six security cameras around our facility . I'll get back with you. Thanks and I enjoy your channel.
@@NaterTater (I may have watched to many videos) just verifying that I should disable the WiFi on the Tmobile router and allow my WiFi routers to work? I think that's the takeaway
@ThreeDayRV it will work. If you have your own routers providing wifi you can leave that wifi intact.

We are having problems connecting to t mobile. When my husband connects it the hardwired connections it shuts down any suggestions?
Is he hitting the power button by accident? If not I'd say its a fault gateway and tmobile will replace it.
Hey bro my job is on IPV4 and they want me to convert my IPV6 I’m so lost
Good info. I recently got T-Mobile Home Internet. No issues with coverage or speed. However, I can't access the gateway and see who's on my home network for example when I'm away. Any recommended solutions for this issue? If I add a separate router and use it to manage parental controls, would I be able to access and manage my router remotely? Any info is greatly appreciated! Thanks.
No, you cant access the gateway remotely, only when at home.
@NaterTater So question about this as well. I have the T-mobile router and wanted to create an AP but can't get the settings once I log the UI. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

It still doesn't turn off both channels. I finally decided to let it turn off my 5ghz radio and make the 2.4 hidden, I don't care about interference on the 2.4 radios.
Very much underrated channel. Thanks bro for all your help with shitty tmobile
why turn off 5ghz its the fastest
@@Blox117 Because I have several other APs (Unifi) in and outside the house that provide wifi.
I'd suggest spending the money on the Cheetah, then you can turn off the Cheetah WiFi completely. I'm doing this right now, but probably going to move my Cheetah and make it my main WiFi AP.
We just got the Internet 5G Gateway T-Mobile, getting around 80 to 90 download speeds need to get up to 150 to 200 around there?
The first thing to do is placing the gateway all around the house and different orientations to find the best speed.

1:37 How do you control the T-Mobile device if you turn off its wifi?
You can still connect to it through the wired connection.
@@tornadotj2059directly to a pc? Is there a video for that? I mean if there’s a video like this one, that basically says connect the cable from the modem to your mesh router, there is surely a video for how to access the modem settings through a wired pc connection
@@ItsAlive111 I just open the T-Mobile Internet app and there it is. It just has to be wired to the WAN port of your new router. But once you have a third party router and access points, you don’t need to manage the T-Mobile router anymore.
are ppl really this slow? and WAN is the input not where you connect your PC
@@Blox117 You need to be quicker than that, you must be too slow to understand that the T-Mobile router IS your input for internet access, where you plug the WAN port of your third party router/firewall into when you aren't using the TMO as your access point/firewall/etc.
What about mtu I see a lot of people saying you have to change mtu on ASUS routers there is no mtu setting that I can see
You dont have to but it may help. You might need to install the Merlin firmware for your Asus to get the WAN MTU setting. th-cam.com/video/v2rOWgGuHBo/w-d-xo.html
I plugged in my netgear router, all the lights are on but its not giving out a available network signal. When I open the tmobile app I see my router as a connected device. The netgear app won't connect to the router because it can't see it
Unplug the netgear from the tmhi, connect to the netgear and make sure the WAN is setup to get a dynamic ip (dhcp) from the tmhi gateway. Also set a custom DNS on the netgear like 8.8.8.8 now plug in the thmi to the netgear WAN port
@NaterTater thanks for replying, how can I connect to netgear without being connected? Tmhi is currently my only isp
@robbiewhicker2632 directly connect to its wifi or via ethernet to the netgear. It doesnt need internet for you to log in to the settings. Also if you dont have any specific settings on the netgear you need, try a factory reset. 99% of consumer routers just need a ethernet from their WAN port to the tmhi gateway and they will work.
is there something weird with mine? my download is up to 1.6 gbps and 0.3 gbps. im only using the powered antenna given by verizon
sounds like mmWave. great service
@@NaterTater would another external antenna help with getting higher speed? Thanks
@Blox117 you mean 1600 Mbps DL and 300 Mbps UL isn't fast enough?
@@NaterTater ya it's fast for 50$ but if it could be faster that's even cooler lol. I was surprised at the speed too, but I do have line of sight with a tower 0.4 miles away. I'm on Verizon not t mobile tho
@@NaterTater brooooo I put my receiver antenna outside instead of in the window and now I hit 2.9 gigabits
Say you have a Arcadyan KVD21 gateway and a Netgear router. Is there an easy way to turn off the wifi on the Tmobile gateway, so that it is only receiving the cellular signal to provide an internet connection to the netgear router? Right now a family member has both a netgear router and a tmobile gateway connected via ethernet. On any device in their house, it shows up that there are four different internet connections to connect to (a 2.5 Ghz and 5 Ghz for each device). This gets rather confusing (trying to know what to connect to for the best performance speed). Also, would it possibly make the netgear router's internet connection any faster, not having any interference from the Tmobile gateway's wifi signal? I'm trying to figure out a way to help get their connection to be more consistent/stable for them.
Yes. I mentioned it in this video and linked it in the video description. th-cam.com/video/Qy-f8xfPk4s/w-d-xo.html

I have T-Mobile Home Internet and it's been great I also just got the New Google Nest Wi-Fi Pro 6E Mesh System but I'm wondering if there's any way I could get faster Speeds on my Nest Wi-Fi Point that's Downstairs? I have the main Nest Wi-Fi Router Upstairs connected directly to the T-Mobile Modem and I can't move the T-Mobile Modem because it gets the best Signal and Speeds being connected Upstairs. Would it be possible for me to run an Ethernet Cable from the main Nest Wi-Fi Router to the Nest Wi-Fi Point Downstairs to get around the same Speeds as I get Upstairs? Or would I have to run a long Ethernet Cable from the main T-Mobile Modem to the Downstairs Nest Wi-Fi Point? The T-Mobile Home Internet Modem has two Ethernet Ports and I'm using the one Port for the main Nest Wi-Fi Router that's Upstairs so that leaves another Ethernet Port open on the T-Mobile Home Internet Gateway so would it be possible to use that open Ethernet Port on the T-Mobile Home Internet Gateway for the Downstairs Nest Wi-Fi Point? Would it act as two Routers if I did that? Or would the Speeds be slower? I'm basically trying to get the same Speeds that I get Upstairs from the main Nest Wi-Fi Router on the Downstairs Nest Wi-Fi Point.
yes, wired backhaul from your downstairs node to the main Nest would be what you want to do.
@@NaterTater Oh ok thanks I have a 5 Port Ethernet Switch connected to the other Ethernet Port on the Main Nest Router and no open Ports available on the Switch. Would I be able to plug the Switch into the open Ethernet Port on the T-Mobile Gateway and still get Internet to my Devices connected to the Switch that way?
@joshf_151_tech yes and depending how your nest are setup your switch might be a different network. If so the switch devices would have internet access but not direct access to devices connected to the nest system. You could spend $20 and get a bigger switch though amzn.to/47mQrkp
@@NaterTater Oh ok I have it setup as a Wired Backhaul and my Speeds Downstairs are much faster especially on Wi-Fi but I've noticed that my Ethernet Speeds aren't as fast Upstairs is that do to me having the Ethernet Cable plugged into the second Ethernet Port on the T-Mobile Home Internet Gateway? Is the second Ethernet Port on the T-Mobile Gateway slower? If so could I get a Switch and plugin everything Upstairs to the main Nest Wi-Fi Router and get my Ethernet Speeds faster that way?
@joshf_151_tech both ethernet ports on the tmobile gateway should be the same speed.
Hey Nate, i just recently discovered your videos as i just got t mobile 5g home internet. My download speeds arent great but what i care about more is buffer bloat and its terrible. I scored an F
Im really confused here. I want to stream and I need to mitigate this buffer bloat. Will adding a router fix this? I have the arkadian gateway from t mobile.
Did you see my bufferbload video? th-cam.com/video/RAb1AWVFu3A/w-d-xo.html yes a router can help reduce bufferbloat
@NaterTater yes I watched it but from what I watched, you improved bufferbloat on your asus router and Verizon one, if im not mistaken. What I want to know, what is a good router to connect to my T-Mobile gateway? I would use it for online gaming and streaming. Something that isn't too expensive. I have the Arkadian gateway from t-mobile
@maxvongunden2008 the same process applies for tmobile or any other ISP.
@@NaterTater ok, I saw in a previous comment somewhere that you recommended the ASUS RT-AX82U gaming router. Will this work with the T-Mobile gateway to reduce buffer bloat?
@maxvongunden2008 yes. You might have to download the Merlin firmware to adjust mtu.
Please look into a differant mic. Sound is like a pillow over the voice. Thank You Tater
Sadly I think that's just my voice...and I am congested from allergies currently.
@@NaterTater sorry to hear. Try putting some sour cream on your taters
You babble to much
Yes
DUDE DOESN'T ANSWER BACK TO ANY OF HIS FANS IM SCROLLING READING COMMENTS AND NOT ONE REPLY BACK TO ANYINE FROM THIS GUY....😶
So true
But because of us u have subscribers🙅
😅🤡
I’m just glad he’s making videos and sharing the information. He doesn’t have to reply think about it. He’s got a life too and just imagine if you had hundreds of people wanting to talk to you every day how fast that would get old and when would you have the timeanswer back everybody I could almost become a full-time job
Fans ?? LOL , this dudes life is T-Mobile and selling other people’s stuff for a commission, why would you be a “fan” ??? Just take what information is beneficial and move on, becoming a “fan” is weird .
Can I connect my EERO router with optimum fiber router working both togueter????
Depends. In general you want one router as the master.
I want my router as a master because more reliable also have extenders. But I need optimum to connect Fiber.
It is possible?
