How do you fix the TTL trick?
2 comments

on the AP (phone):

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j TTL --ttl-set 65

You will need TTL target built into the kernel of the ROM you are using. LineageOS is unwilling to do it officially, so I build my own with it enabled.

It's a good idea to only use ipv4 when doing this. A few services are detected on TMUS, so for those VPN. Sprint doesn't seem to care, but they have a patent on TTL detection too from around 10 years ago. I normally do not VPN, but I do use my own DNS since I don't like carrier hijacking.

You set the default TTL in your OS to +=1.
