How do I configure my T-Mobile Sagemcom FAST 5688W 5G Gateway from my Desktop PC Browser?  

When I try to access the Gateway configuration interface by typing 192.168.12.1 in the
browser address bar I get the Home Screen only, and no way to move on to the
configuration settings screens or the Advanced cellular metrics data screen.

I very much prefer the browser access over the phone app.
Is this possible?

@angell33 You need to use the T-Mobile internet app, which you can download from the Apple App Store or Google Play store. You can’t configure the gateway by anything else but the app. 

Here is a link: https://www.t-mobile.com/support/home-internet/t-mobile-gateway

Good luck!

Thanks copz1998 for your reply.  This video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NJ7TJ_1VZk
shows how to turn off both WI-FI channels on the T-Mobile Sagemcom FAST 5688W 5G Gateway
to save power and reduce heat.  Maybe I should try that?

@angell33 if you are trying to et metrics and which band you are on, you need to use the T-Mobile internet app (the one you used to setup your gateway. As far as saving power and reducing heat, I am not confident there will be a measurable difference by turning off both channels. I suppose you could try. Nader Nader has a lot of credibility. 

Let us know what you decide and the results.
