Stunning.
T-Moblile has intentionally restricted configuration and security controls on their devices. Their software overlay (no one builds devices this way) intentionally restricts basic security features, including:
- MAC filtering
- ip allocation
- subnet control
- ip address configuration
- Port configuration
- Turn wireless on and off
- ip pass through
- dns selection
- ipv6 availability
- firewall...whats that?
- VPN access
- pretty much everything you need to do to secure your internet.
Actually easier to say here is what you can do:
Name your wireless network
Set Passwords
hide the home wireless network
Customer service openly acknowledges that the president of T-Mobile is aware of this and reportedly will not change it.
THIS TMOBILE DECISION IS INTENTIONAL. They try to tell you it's the manufacturer but try to find a company that makes a device so shoddily configured. STUNNINGLY the app has more control than trying to login directly.
