The regular broadband to my house is currently not working, and I connected my computer to a T-Mobile 5G mifi hotspot. Websites work, TD Ameritrade thinkorswim works, but Sierra refuses to connect giving the errors like below:

Is there some setting I can set for Sierra to work with my 5G connection till my regular broadband is working again (need the cable replaced between box and house).

The problem is that the system is unable to connect to CQG. As to why there would be a difference in that connection with your Internet providers.

Try rebooting your computer and see if that resolves the issue.

Otherwise, you would have to ask T-Mobile as to why there is an issue connecting to 208.48.16.17.
