I placed a search on Google and this is the response I got back.
"This network is blocked due to unaddressed abuse complaints about malicious behavior. This page checks to see if it's really a human sending the requests and not a robot coming from this network.”
What does this mean? Is Google trying to block my use of its service because of issues with T-Mobile?
rapidly approaching 2 months, pretty crappy support with this issue!
Just started happening to me as well, also using TMHI.
This has been happening on all of our devices all day. A reboot of the modem did not solve the issue.
This started at my home last night about 5pm Eastern TIme. On my laptop and my phone. I can click the box and move on but I would prefer to get it fixed. I did take a screen shot of the full message if IP and such is needed.

Been having the same issue in Beaufort SC. Rebooting gateway does nothing, happens on wireless or hardwired. Have to use a VPN to get it to stop happening. Any answers to a fix?
Same Issue in Northwest Ohio.
Here in North Florida this started for us about 3 days ago, only a few days after we switched to T-mobile 5g internet.
this is extremely frustrating and we love the internet service and don’t want to go back to Xfinity, please get this fixed! It happens on iPhone, iPad, and wind based computers.
Same issue here, for the past week.. in new orleans.
Hey there. That is a really weird error to be getting on a search. If I am understanding correctly, this error pops up right after typing a search before any search results come up. I would love to get some more information about the situation, so I can pass along the message for the really techy people to dig in and find out why. If you are comfortable sharing, I would love to know what you searched for, what time with time zone, and a screenshot of the error. If there is a hiccup with a set of our IP addresses and Google, then we want to tackle that asap. Thanks for sharing so we can figure it out!
I’m getting the same error and I was searching “manatee.” Very benign. LOL Here is a screenshot.
Hello from New Orleans. Ditto to everything said above. This is happening with all my devices which are connected to the T-Mobile Home Internet. Please find a fix soon!
Thanks

Getting the same issue here. Started about a day ago on all my computers/phones and regardless of browser. I've restarted everything a number of times, cleared the history and cache’s of all the internet access computers/phones and still no help. This is kind of frustrating and a bit scary too.
Hey everybody! We really want to find out why exactly this error is occurring and appreciate everyone that is speaking up about it. Filing tickets with our care team is a great way to draw attention to what exactly is going on, but I am also sending your feedback to our T-Mobile Internet team to have it reviewed.
To pin down exactly what is happening, the information that is extremely helpful is you IP address, time, and city/state when you get the error. Some may not be totally comfortable with sharing that information on the public thread, but if you send me a DM with those details, I can pass it along.
Thanks!
Shreveport Louisiana here.
this must be within certain areas that T-Mobile devices have been used or being used. I am having the same issue; however, if I use my work computer with a VPN and go to google over my T-Mobile device then it does not happen then. I know that the VPN when going to google is using my work IP address so it does not recognize the T-Mobile. However, if I go off of VPN and just back on my home network then it happens. This is definitely a T-Mobile issue that they should fix.
Found that this issue is only between Google and T-Mobile. Every other website works and I NEVER get the Captcha page.
I wonder if this is national or just focused more in one part of the country. I’m located in the NorthWest panhandle of FL (new Pensacola). I see a New Orleans, an Ohio, and a Shreveport LA.
I'm in MI and have had this issue for a few days also.
Hey friends,
Can you provide the information that I asked for in my previous post. The more examples and details we get, the better chance we have at resolving this quickly. Thanks.
Hey 😊 I have been keeping on the situation and hoping to have better news by now. Our engineering teams are engaged with Google to resolve the issue. There is no estimated time of completion yet. We do have all the examples we need at this time.
You guys are so great about trying all the things to get the error and captcha to stop showing up. The suggestions from our teams right now are to refresh the browser and restart the gateway. You can also try different browsers and if possible, use iOS devices.
I know this may not be the news y’all were hoping for. I’ll continue to watch and update here as soon as we know more.
There may be some confusion about “searching”. I suspect everyone is having the same issue as I am and you don’t have to search. Just going to google.com causes the CAPTCHA to show up for me. I have Google set-up as my default search engine, so tying a search in the URL bar causes the error as well. But really, you don’t have to search, just going to Google causes the issue.
As for location, I’m NW Florida (Central Time Zone).
After I clear the message, I get a few minutes without issue but it will come back eventually. I’ve attached an image. Note that I didn’t search, I just tried to go to google.com. To help, I included a second image taken just 10 seconds after the first one AFTER going thru the process and getting access. I cleared my cache and cookies to see if the message would show up twice and it did.
Another image showing just “google.com” in the URL line.
It’s been happening for the past month in southern Michigan - started, stopped, then started again
3+ weeks and pretty much nadda, restart the gateway which does nothing, and buy an iphone. Wow!
Hey T-Mobile, when are you going to offer us all free high speed VPNs to get around this BS issue with YOUR network?
Would you know if this type of IP address assignment is a charateristic of all fixed wireless internet providers (e.g. Verizon and AT&T) or is it just T-Mobile?
I would say you would have to research each one on a case-by-case basis, but I would expect all wireless carriers are using CGNAT, at least for their mobile customers and probably for their Internet customers as well. I believe Starlink is also CGNAT. As far as wired carriers, I also believe some are CGNAT as well, as I have heard of similar reports from users of other wired ISPs such as Spectrum and Xfinity. But I haven't done a tremendous amount of research outside of T-Mobile, honestly.
Same issue (North Florida) for over 2 weeks. I work from home and this is ridiculous. I’ve been very happy with T-Mobile up to now but the fact that they cant get this resolved is concerning. May be time to switch providers again...
