VPN on TMobile home 5G internet calyx - eviltoast

I have calyx hotspot/ tmobile home internet. Ive been having issues with my work Palo Alto Global Protect VPN and tailscale. Neither of them seem to stay connected. They will work for a bit after I reboot my modem. I am using the glinet spitz 5g modem. Any tips for band, MTU, or APN for better experience?

    How is your speed and connection quality otherwise? The fact that your work VPN doesn’t stay connected – I’m assuming the client is running on your PC – is odd. That makes me think there may be some issues with signal strength or tower congestion. TMobile also gives home internet a lower priority than cell phone traffic.

      The speed varies I beleive due to the tower usage. Generally 150 down 30mbps up. My modem reports the signal strength as full bars or exelent. Restarting the modem sometimes get me back in business.
