The past couple of months, their speeds have been as slow as 30/1 and I rarely see over 250/60 anymore. Meanwhile Verizon’s C Band is staying much stronger, but they also haven’t pushed their home internet as much either.

Thanks for the info. I check my speed every morning when I boot up. The last week or so I have noticed a major drop off. It has not noticeably affected You Tube TV or my computer which are my two main points of usage. I just checked my data usage for the last six months and I never hit a terabyte as I was in the 700 to 900 gb range. I am grandfathered in as I have had the service for over 18 months. I am not a heavy user by what was defined in the document on the website, yet I suspect my speed drop has something to do with the stated change on their website. Reading other commenters seem to confirm my suspicions. My experience with T-Mobile thus far has been very positive. I hope they can implement what they claimed in the document. I expect to see my speeds go back up because I am not nor have I ever been a heavy user by their definition plus even if I were I would be grandfathered in.

As for being deprioritized - On my 5G gateway, Grandfathered plan, speeds are usually between 220/60 & 480/80. It rarely goes below 100 down. I'm also on Mint Mobile that uses T-mobile towers and I never once had a problem anywhere with the exception of at a large concert where social media slowed down but calls and texts were still fine.

I have had the 5G home internet service since it was first available in my area. But they have been throttling me for the last year or so. I am not a heavy user but on weekends, I do a lot of video downloads for education. I was always thinking my gateway unit was going bad because I would be in the middle of something and everything would simply freeze up. When I tried another computer, it was getting the same results so I know it was not my hardware. I am about ready to just pitch their 5G service because it is slower than the old dial-up AOL service from years ago.
@howardzhao4685
@howardzhao4685 9 месяцев назад
Hi Nater, always love your informative video. But for this one, if I understand this correctly from the T mobile statement, it is actually the good move for newer customers. What T mobile doing is redefined Home Internet in a similar hot spot tier, with first 1.2T usages being on the same high priority as rest of t mobile wireless users, and then dropping to the current lower priority as we have always been. Which in fact, as grandfathered home Internet users, we are stuck in all time lower priority without distinguishing before or after 1.2T usages. There is still no cap for home Internet which is the only difference compared to hot spot plane. On the other hand, for newer customers, your speed would be in full potential for the first 1.2T, then between 72 - 245 download in average, as grandfathered plan will always be in 72 - 245. I am using over 3T every month in average, I will see in next few month if anything changes. My average speed are 400 down and 50 up so far.

@@howardzhao4685 T-Mobile uses QCI levels of 6-9 for data. 6 Is the priority data, 7 is Essentials/Prepaid. 8 is now Hotspot/HINT and potentially heavy data users, 9 is HINT after 1.2 TB. At least that's how it should be due to the re-structure if I'm reading how it's worded correctly. It is correct it's a re-structured priority system because the new terms specifically state it's ENTIRELY "due to data prioritization." If it was a throttle, they are required to specify what the throttled speeds are, not "data prioritization" (like they do for prepaid/Metro and the 128k throttle)

This is misleading. There are no caps and the honeymoon isn’t over. For the first 1.2TB you get QCI8 prioritization, after it’s QCI9. By default it’s always been QCI9, until this change. TMHI was always the lowest priority, but now you get better priority for 1.2TB then back to normal.

So what's really going on here is that TMHI data WAS already at the lowest QCI 9, but what will be happening is that TMHI will be on QCI 8 until that 1.2T threshold and then moved back down to QCI 9 (so back to how it was before the change.) Many users are already reporting faster speeds on average up until that threshold.

I should definitely be Grandfathered in I've had them for about two Years now but I did do a Gateway Exchange at the T-Mobile Store a few Months back and they put me on a New Line for some odd reason instead of just putting my old SIM Card in the New Gateway? Either way I should still be Grandfathered in since that was done a few Months back. Here's some advice though if anyone needs to do a Gateway Exchange I suggest making sure they don't put you on a New Line because then you'd no longer be Grandfathered in. I don't expect the 1.2 TB Data Cap to be a major problem especially if you live in a Rural Area but if you live in a City then yeah you could end up having major slowdowns or problems. I know quite a few people that go over the High Speed Data allowance on their Phones and they never complain about major slowdowns but we also live in a Rural Area so that's probably why so it definitely depends on where you live and how congested the Tower closest to you is.

For the last week we get 100 down on ethernet and only 50 on Wi-Fi. Its been very unstable this month as well, a lot more times with no internet.
