🏷️ About: HINT Control is a cross-platform app for accessing and managing your T-Mobile Home Internet gateway, with some extra features compared to the official app. Features include advanced statistics, WiFi radio control, SSID management, and band steering, with more to come as more is discovered about the gateways.
HINTControl doesn’t work with voice over.
Yes we would like access to the features as totally blind users as well!
Thanks!
Latest update breaks it.. at least for the sagemcom gateway. It won’t get passed the login screen and says invalid json. I went and deleted the json file.. that didn’t didn’t help. Then I deleted and reinstalled HINTControl .. that didn’t work either. Also.. a problem with either HINTControl or the sagemcom.. you can’t pick channel 36 for 5ghz.. it always goes to channel 40 even though it says 36 in HINTControl . Plus still no G4AR support?
Was really hoping this would actually expose some controls like port forwarding or DMZ, but about the only thing it will do is let you rename the wifi SSIDs. You can turn off the 2.4 ghz radio, but if you disable the 5ghz radio, it breaks some of the gateway functionality until you do a factory reset. Meh.
G4AR not showing LTE stats. App might need update.
Really great! Would like to see an option to adjust apn if possible. Definitely refer to any other Home Internet customers.
Really frustrating that you can’t paste password or use password manager to login. That said, HINTControl is very convenient. Would prefer a web app instead but I’m thankful someone made literally anything for managing these garbage ISP-provided gateways. T-Mobile you are terrible and I hate you for not providing more user control of these devices.
This is a great app do you know when HINTControl will support latest G4AR gateway? Thanks
Thank you, keep updating as much as you can!
I love it!
If you have the beta installed, be sure to delete it first
Let’s uses see and adjust settings that T-Mobile’s app does not display.
Cannot log in - iPhone 11 Pro - keyboard will not reduce to get past the credentials to actually get to the next step.
Been 3+months since an update showed up in iOS. App store still on 1.10.5 when GitHub has 1.11.5 for all platforms including macOS
Great app, thank you for your efforts. Turned off the 2.4 and 5 ghz bands, my google wifi speeds are blazing like it was connected to directly to the Tmobile router.
Fantastic app for people that want to manage their T-Mobile gateway. T-Life app always says my Gateway isn’t connected even when it is, and makes you jump through unnecessary setup hoops, and doesn’t let you see any useful data. Big kudos to the developer. You need this if you have T-Mobile Home Internet.
I so appreciate the access ISP should have provided with service. Thank you!
Installed HINTControl yesterday. I don’t know if this is the case, but my download speeds have increased by a factor of 10. I am no “ techie” but could it be due to HINTControl? Hope so!
Adds necessary features for managing T-Mobile home internet gateways that should be provided by T-Mobile. Many thanks to the developer for creating, releasing, and maintaining this very helpful app.
What’s not to like? App works as it should and is very useful especially if you have T-Mobile Home Internet. I was able to find the best possible placement for my gateway. Thank you!
Not for most people but if you have a T-Mobile gateway and working knowledge of network management it’s exactly what you need. The interface is clean and intuitive. Thank you Zachary for doing this!
Thank you!
