I cannot fathom how horrible it has been to try and game using their Gateway. Internet speeds are useless when I keep getting disconnected from Xbox and minecraft. I just wanted to do lan play and for some reason it wasn't working. I ended up resorting to my Hotspot just to play without interruptions. Absolutely ridiculous and I cannot come to use their service ever again. Especially when you have no control over port forwarding or anything.
Maybe you should double check your setup. Is your gateway aligned with your cell tower? Is it near a window with little obstruction? How many bars do you have on the signal strength meter? When using your T-Mobile Internet app, what are your SINR, RSRQ, and RSRP readings (looking at your Advanced Cellular Metrics tab)? Are you on a 5G band (N41 or N71) or LTE? N41 is preferred and faster.
If you review your installation process, maybe you will see that you can get a better/stronger signal with improved gaming speeds.
Good luck! (I am not an employee)
My speeds are excellent, i get above 200 MBs download , and 60 to 80 MBs upload. But regardless of that I can't play with my fiancee on a local server on minecraft and I will randomly get disconnected from Xbox live out of no where. I think it has something to do with my ports but as you know, we have no control over port forwarding and stuff. My gateway is by a window seal with excellent connection.
