T-Mobile 5G Home Internet gateway and Firewalla Gold
Hi, we will be moving in a few months. Currently our Firewalla Gold has done a great job on the Cox cable modem. Where we are moving to the best choice is using the T-Mobile 5G Home Internet Gateway (Arcadyan KVD21 hardware), however I could not find anything on installation or best practices using this device rather than a cable modem. Suggestions?

Depends on your configuration, if you really don't like the double NAT, firewalla gold also supports bridge mode. https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500012304202-Firewalla-Transparent-Bridge-Mode

Sorry, just recently saw your post. I've used Firewalla Blue Plus for almost 2 years with T-Mobile 5g with no issues. I just plugged my TP-Link Router into the T Mobile Nokia router and turned off Wi Fi on the T-Mobile router. You can check, on YouTube, the Nater Tater channel. He has done great work with ALL the T Mobile routers and explains how to turn off wifi on each model. I did change the MTU (Packet size) to 1420 which many have said to do on my TP-Link AX21 router. I presently have it in simple mode utilizing my TP-Link router. Just ordered the new Purple SE and will try using Router mode with Firewalla when it arrives. Best of luck
