T-moble home internet can be good. You need to turn it in just a modem only witch you can in settings. For it to be good you need a wifi 6 router and Chang the mtu package size to 1420. That's the same as at&t package size Verizon is 1428. There's video's to show you how. 🙂
Can you imagine us Seniors, this is giving me a headache. Loved your video. I am in the middle of cutting the cord to DirecTV. Keeping ATT internet, looking for phone plans and low bill. This is crazy how bad this shit is. I have 3 TV's, 3 HD antennas, Prime and Firestick so far. 66 Woman in Texas. The problem, I have keeping ATT internet, their BILLSs are NEVER the same month to month. I used to bundle with ATT/DirecTV w/no sport channels it got up to $190 with Internet 300. No extras at all.
I have Verizon Home LTE. It is unlimited and is not throttled or deprioritized. The only limitations are 50Mbps download/6Mbps upload. I have had several reps tell me it is truly unlimited without caps or slow downs for how much you use. I assume that's why it's limited on availability. It was available in my area this past summer, but it is currently no longer showing available to addresses in my area.
Update on mine. I cut the cord, now only streaming. Paying $14.99. Phone I went with Mint, $360 a year, $30 month. I have ATT internet 100 $60. =Total $104 month on Phone, Internet and Streaming. I save $80 t0 $90 a month. I bought 3 antennas, 3 Fire Sticks and I am happy with the outcome.
0% packet loss from my extensive testing I have a load balance router in between the gateway and my home network with the mtu set to 1420. That should solve any packet loss issues and as far as latency goes it should improve with network / tower upgrades
Watch Peter Carcione’s videos Dennis, he has figured out how to tweak the Nokia router without hitting double NAT issues and WiFi interference issues. Contact him and see what he advises you to do as far as tweaking the trash can.
@@fredwilliams8898 It’s common sense that you shouldn’t use T-Mobile home broadband in a congested area, a lot of times, those areas are blocked from getting it in the first place because their address isn’t eligible. I don’t get what you are trying to go for unless you’re just trolling.
Since my area has never had wireline broadband service, I really liked this episode. However, I think you are incorrect about the AT&T product. Like Verizon, AT&T has advertised more than one wireless home internet service. I believe AT&T's Fixed Wireless Internet uses an external B30 antenna/modem that connects to an indoor router via an ethernet cable. My recollection is that the gateway you describe was for an older product called AT&T Wireless Internet. This service connected to the same bands as their phones and had a higher 500GB cap but was only offered in a few very select areas like Verizon's LTE Home Internet. Unfortunately, these wireless home internet services from Verizon, AT&T or T-Mobile are not offered here because my rural macro is congested from inadequate backhaul.
Irony lmao, I was using my hotspot using T-Mobile 5G UC on my 12 pro max while watching this stream, and I ended up having to switch to my ATT prepaid cause I assume the network was congested (I’m near a hospital) Dennis is right, AT&Ts LTE is so reliable even in congested areas
@@harveytheattorney I'm curious about that because before T-Mobile, I had Verizon, which I switched from because 5G UW wasn't available in most places and 5G NW was very slow. However, on Verizon, I recall getting around 100mbps when in the Holland Tunnel. I wonder if T-Mobile could beat it considering its speeds on both sides of the tunnel are really high.
Someone else said that you CAN turn the WiFi off on the t-mo gateway! :P Packet loss… I can’t get wired internet where I’m at, I can’t get V or T home internet yet, I got the (?) turbo hotspot 2 from cricket and I have latency issues, I get account errors with email, It will spin and spin and then get “safari couldn’t maintain a secure connection” type error, …I can stream video, but, anything else is hit or miss, mostly I can’t rely on it for anything secure, (payments, checking bank accent etc.), so I guess the problem is packet loss, because the reception and speed tests are fine (25-40). 100GB limit makes it not practical for me to begin with, but, it’s so unreliable I have to switch to my visible hotspot (slow data mode) to update my email, check bank accnt, make payments. Ridiculous. I’ve used Speedtest but is there another one that will test for packet loss?
Exactly, The AT&T service was like DSL fixed LTE here and it still sold out in about six months. Even worse, the T-Mobile service was like dial-up fixed LTE and it sold out in just two months. Verizon was wise enough to never offer their service in these parts.
I am honestly shocked with your conclusion. I have tmobile home internet and I game and do remote work on it and I never notice any trouble. My pings are always around the 20-30 constantly even when someone else is in the house downloading something. I've rarely had packet loss on the product and I regularly speed test. While I agree that it is annoying with how limited the Nokia gateway is, for it it does the job and gets me about 600/80 constantly with spikes being 800/90. It hasn't done the reset thing abs has run for literally months on end without a restart not problem. Also how do you know that the Verizon product doesn't suffer from the same issues. It hasn't been tested yet. Note the modem reads 3 bars and the tower isn't the closest to me with the modem just thrown in the room no place special.
@@gbux07 I regularly get faster speeds on T-Mobile 5G UC (up to 700mbps) with my Magenta Max plan than my Fios Gigabit plan over Wi-Fi (around 550mbps) on my iPhone 13 Pro Max and may get even faster with Verizon C-Band (I ordered a prepaid SIM to test it out), and if it is indeed around 1Gbps, it might be a better option than Fios.
@@davidempire4874 You might need a WiFi 6 router to maximize FiOS speeds. That seems like it is a limitation of your WiFi router over the FiOS line itself.
@@davidempire4874 Then I’m wondering if there isn’t a configuration issue with FiOS. Do you have a way to check the speed with an Ethernet connection to the FiOS gateway?
Update (T-mo): (1) New Arcadyan gateway much improved over original Nokia ‘trash can’ especially with late February 2022 firmware update; (2) Discount for bundles now offered, some seniors-only; (3) Built-in Wi-Fi limited options but EXTREMELY good/strong coverage/speed… 2nd floor (back-corner) to basement (front-corner) got same 100/34 mbps dn/up performance. Good technical descriptions/explanations deserve to be pulled into own video. The very time-sensitive, quickly outdated findings/recommendations should be separate and at least descriptions updated if not linked to video update of new vendor offerings.
Ours is 75/10 speed plan on 95$ aud a month for Nbn Fixed wireless network in Australia Upgrade coming Late 2023 Will upgrade to IPhone 15 if i make mum a offer for my old iPhone 12 Pro I still own I may ? 0:21
At 25:48 you guys lagged very badly. At first I thought it was my phone but really the stream was lagging bad on your end. I think as it stands Verizon has the BEST value and with at least LTE for the average consumer it would be as good as T-Mobile. But just with the 50% off it’s better. Period. T-Mobile isn’t that good in most rural areas compared to the other two. So honestly. Verizon is the top clear choice. Hands down.
AT&T 5G Home internet better that T-Mobile? No way! AT&T is way behind. But they are big on Fiber. Compare the number of users who can get and who have 5G Home internet….T-mobile 5G Home internet is ahead. Look at some of the RU-vid videos like from Sneed Mobile Tech - they talk about AT&T and lack of 5G Home Internet coverage/availability and they don’t talk about it much on investor calls. T-Mobile and Verizon are pushing much harder including buying spectrum. Look at the recent news just this week and past couple weeks on the positive spectrum news for Verizon and T-Mobile.
No Att or Verizon for me. I just got TMO Internet and getting 600+ Mbps DN, 90 up, 30-40 pings. I use my Tp ling ax6000 router with no issues. Just make sure your QOS is set to manual with values like 800 DN, 100 up or your router will auto set to lower values! Gaming is no issues or throttled. Goodbye Comcucks!!!
