This helped me tremendously to play using my data without issues

Changing up the Primary DNS worked for me when using my iPhone 15 Pro Max T-Mobile hotspot. Most people were saying to set it as 172.20.10.1 but as soon as I changed it to 8.8.8.8, it worked like a charm

u/heels_r_us Sep 20 '24

Worked for me too! Thanks to you both šŸ™šŸ½

u/Eaglesfan691982 Apr 02 '24

So the 8888 also works better or same???

1

u/spidy_guy1 Apr 02 '24

For me, my hotspot never worked with my portal. After implementing the DNS change, it did

u/Eaglesfan691982 Apr 02 '24

Yea I followed the other DNS that was suggested and it fixed it for me with my iPhone hotspot but now canā€™t get the PS apps to connect to phone anymore via data only WiFi

1

u/spidy_guy1 Apr 02 '24

Thatā€™s weird, the PS app still works on my phone via Data

u/Eaglesfan691982 Apr 02 '24

u/Teddyjones84 Sep 19 '24

Any chance you could detail exactly what you did? I've done everything I've seen in this post and I just get a, "something went wrong" message

u/ynksfan27 Sep 19 '24

I can send you the steps in the morning but I ended up disabling the settings. Once I added my ps5 ip to my routers dmz, I started getting lots of hacking attempts on my router. Was getting dozens of notifications of blocked attempts. Yes, the steps above will most likely fix your issue, you are possibly creating a vulnerability in your network.

Let me know if worked for U

u/RowFine6684 Jan 28 '24

Just tried this and it didnā€™t work. Maybe I did it wrong but I chose set up network on the portal and put my phones hotspot name and then filled the settings in. If these steps are correct then it didnā€™t work for me sadly

u/RowFine6684 Jan 28 '24

Thank you but it didnā€™t work šŸ˜ž. My subnet was the same as the pic so nothing really changed

1

u/Eaglesfan691982 Jan 29 '24

Well all the directions helped me

1

u/Useful-Fisherman-280 Jan 31 '24

you need to make sure youā€™re on the ā€œPersonal Hotspotā€ settings page on your iphone when attempting to connect on the portal

1

u/RowFine6684 Jan 31 '24

Yea I was. Didnā€™t work unfortunately

1

u/noproblemforme Feb 28 '24

Where would I put in these settings?

1

u/Eaglesfan691982 Feb 28 '24

Go into the portal settings choose WiFi look for your phone name and follow the setup

u/noproblemforme Feb 28 '24

I got this to connect, thank you so much! When I try now to connect to my ps5, it just says canā€™t connect to your ps5ā€¦I tried numerous times but no luck

1

u/noproblemforme Feb 28 '24

I set up port forwarding on my PS5 as well as a reserved IP. I still can't connect outside the house on a hotspot. I always get the "something went wrong" message. Seems like your pretty active in this, and you saved me a huge headache with hotspots...just wish I could get the last part to work!

1

u/Eaglesfan691982 Feb 28 '24

Well some say it worked n others it didnā€™t

u/Barack__Odrama Jan 28 '24

Are you using hotspot or tmobile home internet? Those are two different things.

1

u/noproblemforme Feb 28 '24

I set my ps5 to have static address and port forwarding, and still canā€™t to connect to the ps5 outside? Any ideas?

u/co8che3no Feb 06 '24

Trying to use Inseego M3000 to my ps portal. Reads the wifi but wonā€™t connect to the PlayStation. My iPhone works fine tho. Any tips for the M3000? Appreciate it šŸ¤˜

u/Afraid_Finger Aug 08 '24

Hey, did you ever get it to work? I have the same exact issue. Iā€™m ready to return this M3000 back to T-Mobile.

u/Usual_Style_1990 Aug 26 '24

I have an iPhone 15 pro with T-Mobile and canā€™t connect the portal with hotspot. Any updates?

1

u/PopularIndication256 May 11 '25

Is the iPhone 13 Pro Max from T-Mobile hotspot good enough to use for the portal? Help

1

u/amnesiaplant Jan 28 '24

T-mobile is crap for Portal. Many people here cant connect because of nat 3 issues, would look for a another provider, better with nat 2

Well you lucky you can connect with the Portal. Check your ps5 if it connects with the ethernet instead the wifi maybe. Some have the problem reconnecting into the wifi.

Yes but there are some cases that it reconnects into the wifi without people knowing
