I just got mine 3 days ago and have the same issues. The settings are nearly non existent, no port mapping, upnp, dhcp reservations...I can't remote desktop connect from work back home with no port forwarding, none of my security camera show up anymore on my phone for probably the same reason, MySQL database won't connect....I was thinking the T-Mobile home internet was real internet, it seems to just a big hotspot, for getting your laptop on Facebook or watching Netflix. I'm 3 days into it and not sure I will keep it. On top of that the speed is unreliable, first day I was getting 30-45mbps, today 8-15mbps. May as well keep my slow DSL, at least everything worked on it.

Also experiencing all of the above, I can deal with no party chat but it is very annoying. This is a huge step up from our crappy Hotspot we had so can't complain too much. But I would love it it tmobile would add the advanced settings to the gateway.

Hopefully they fix this ASAP. 
I would be very pleased with the home WiFi if they can fix this issue. 

Yea I hope so too.

For now I'm using the xbox app on my phone for party chats. I got an Elgato chat link cable and I can hear the game off the controller and still chat in the party on my phone with my gaming headset. It's a little ridiculous but it works.

I just want to be able to port forward and enable upnp. It is a better upgrade for me since I had satellite internet and I couldn't even game online with it. The data didn't even last 3 days thanks to game updates. So this new home internet is great. Like I said just looking for the option to port forward and enable upnp and NAT.

And my NAT type is always at moderate as that UPnP not being supported keeps it at that.

Yup same problem, I join an Xbox party and it says I’m in there and suddenly it’ll crash and say there was a network issue.. 

I don’t know why T-Mobile wouldn’t add the advance settings for the supposedly “ new and improved “ router but the old one does. 
if I can’t get that UPnP enabled then I’m gonna have to cancel service with them! That’s ridiculous that it’s not even enabled by default.

That’s weird, i get NAT type moderate on my ps5, so hole punching should not be an issue. its unclear to me how xbox party chat wouldn’t function, unless your unit has a strict nat type for some reason (as most cellular modems do). my problem with the tmobile gateway is that it is too damn slow. my cricket (and the ATT that preceded) are much faster, because they have better coverage and stronger signal. 

My NAT will switch from Moderate to open randomly and it will not show the upnp issues when it's open. Like I said before I can game online perfectly fine and in-game chats work. But when I try xbox party chat it'll crash the chat, Microsoft support said it could be the port forwarding. That's why I want to know if there is a way to access it.

I’m having the same  issue I’ve had it for 2 days. I can play online perfectly fine but when i try to make party chats on Xbox it crashes. I wanted to find the port forwarding and upnp fot the gateway but I can’t seem to find it too,
