Some devices cannot see or connect to the gateway’s default network.  You want to leave this network alone and ADD a second network with the + sign at the bottom of the Network tab in the T-Mobile Internet app.  For this new network, set the band to 2.4 GHz and set the WPA version to WPA/WPA2.  Try connecting your TV to this second network.  Use the default network for your other devices, as much as possible.

Here are the T-Mobile support instructions for how to add the second network with the app.

The method I described is exactly how I connected my eleven-year-old desktop computer and eight-year-old printer to my T-Mobile Home Internet.  I’m sorry it did not work for you.  Have you rebooted both the computer and the gateway?
