Overview:
This recommended read describes the configuration for 3G/4G module for T-Mobile.
I've used the Verizon guide to configure the T-Mobile settings by simply adding the proper APN settings to match the carrier. This will work fine if you have a regular IP address but if you decide to upgrade to a static one, T-Mobile won't tell you that the APN will also have to be modified and your service will stop working.
Configuration
To setup access with T-Mobile, Follow the Verizon guide and only update the following APN settings as needed:
If you have a static IP, Add this APN to the settings: b2b.static
If you have a DHCP assigned IP, Add this APN to the settings: fast.t-mobile.com
Parameter | Value |
---|---|
IP Assignment | Dial-Up (PPP) |
Connect | Auto (recommended). May be set to Manual if desired. |
Modem Port | Serial 2 |
Phone Number | *99# |
APN | b2b.static (static) or fast.t-mobile.com (dhcp) |
Initialization String | Do not enter an Initialization String. |
