I tried it for about a month.  Worked great for work.  But then the Earth got hit with a Solar Storm and the service went to crap for a couple days.  And that ended my T-Mobile 5G Home Internet relationship. Regards, George Toft On 10/30/2022 3:43 PM, Daniel Stasinski via PLUG-discuss wrote:

Actually, if you have some clout, AT or most providers will give you a dedicated apn for your biz to connect cellular direct devices to a dedicated circuit, and you mpls route to them via that way as a private cellular network. We use that at my client today and before, it's useful, att,

On Starlink, now that you mention it, I'm kinda curious too. What *do* they allow for ports? I've been on a list asking for a starlink for years, but I don't tweet with twits, so guess I don't get invited. My guess: They treat it like a cellco, ie all cgnat with no inbound ports, only outbound.

T-Mobile, and for that matter Starlink, don't give you the options of port forwarding or any kind of DMZ, and therefore you're effectively unable to directly access any resource past the gateway. On Mon, Oct 31, 2022, at 1:21 PM, Joe Neglia via PLUG-discuss wrote: > Slightly OT but somewhat

Yes I know the FCC auctioned off what were tv channels and cell phone companies paid for them.   From having lived in rural areas of Arizona for much of my life, I can say from experience that the UHF channels from Phoenix didn't reach out into rural areas very well.  At one time Phoenix had

Slightly OT but somewhat related questions: 1) Are web servers allowed on these cell-based ISPs? 2) What about Starlink? --- PLUG-discuss mailing list: PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings:

The UHF TV channels were hardly used, mainly for servicing rural areas. Large densely populated areas did not use them. And the FCC tended to allocate the lower-end frequencies first. So not many people got exposed to the upper-band emissions. None of this airspace was “given away” to anybody.

What  the carriers are calling 5G is a portion of the 5G standards that don't provide the high speed service that the mmwave tech does.  For the last 40 years, the FCC has been handing over to cell phone companies chunks of spectrum that previously were reserved for over the air television.
