I've had this for over a year and a half and moved 3 times. 3 times? Don't ask! Anyway, I took this with me in different areas in the Metroplex of Dallas. There area I started off with had issues, but still was satisfied. The second area gave me a whopping on average of 120-250 mbps with at times up to 535 mbps. My current resident so far has given me between 80-200 mbps. Where I am getting at is that I have seen a lot of complaints about speed on a network that T-Moble working, maybe not hard, but working on improving. I am very happy with this service. Unlike the other providers like Verizon, T-Moble has the most coverage in The US. This service cut my internet and TV bill in more than half as I stream RU-vidTV, the best alternative to cable that offers local channels and then some where you have to pay into the upper tier packages to watch certain channels. The luxury of this internet is not speed. Its saving money where eventually, speed wouldn't mean much to you unless you are the type that is running somewhat of a large scale business from home.
Well the most coverage doesn’t matter if you aren’t even getting 1 mbps. 3 days after we got T-mobile, the internet went to crap with speeds of less than one, even after calling them we were told 3 days ago that the “issue” would be resolved in 24 hours. We had 600+ speeds day one so I highly doubt it’s a problem with where we live or something. If it works for you, great, but there’s a reason that their customer reviews suck and it’s because they are terrible to their customers.
I absolutely love it. Im at $50 now waiting to get my $150 card in the mail and then switching over to the family account. Didn't realize we could get an addition discount on the family line.
Thanks for this.. When you said you have 45 devices connected I was sold!!! 🙂I too am tired of Spectrum/Optimum which is highway robbery. I just joined T-Mobile so thought I will try out the internet.. I'm just concerned about 3 gaming systems going on at once in my house..
Sooo, it's been 2 weeks since your comment. How is it working now in your home? My device comes tomorrow and I'm a bit anxious since I work from home and need stable connectivity. Not so much for gaming.
I mostly use it for gaming and streaming movies. At my last place (in the city) it worked perfectly! Now that I’m a little further out from the city, it’s a hit on miss depending on the day. Love the price, wish I could keep it but it has definitely changed my gaming experience. Very laggy now
Hello. I saw you need to scan a QR-code in order to complete the installation of the router. What happens if later someone at my house scans the code again? Will that disconnect the modem and we need to activate it again? Or it will already set up and it will just give access to the app and the modem's settings? Thanks!
Does pretty good compared to UScellular home internet UScellular has Xbox Teredo blocked couldn't connect xbox live with Tmobile 5G home internet finally able play xbox again 😊
I got TMobile Home Internet December of 2022. West side of Kalamazoo, Michigan. It was advertised as Gig service. The first three months I got 745 Mbps download and 45 Mbps upload. after that until present I get 258 Mbps download and 25 Mbps upload. It is my belief that they are purposefully capping the speed.
Thanks for sharing and for this review. I live in Florida, where we experience many thunderstorms in the summer. I had T-Mobile home internet one year ago and experienced terrible problems with the service during storms, and at other times. Can anyone tell me if the quality of service has improved in the last year? Thank you.
I live in a 5G UC area and I average 300 download and 30 upload. My latency stays anywhere from 40 to 60. If I'm streaming to twitch it jumps anywhere from 70 to 90 latency. Still love TMobile internet regardless. Has been far better than my other providers
@@ZannkyOG If you have TMobile service in your phone do a speed test from your home while on your cell service. That will give you an idea of what your speeds and latency will look like with TMobile home internet. If you you're getting decent latency anything under 70 then yes its great for gaming online
Hello! I just got it two days ago! It's running well for me! 550 to 640 mbps. (In a country where they don't haven't released it yet.) Got the latest model. I saw that with the previous models, you could get the Data Stats (Usage) through the gateway IP. However, there is no such option on the new panel/menu. Have you read whether or not it's possible to see those numbers with the new gateway model? Thanks!
Considering my latest speed over dsl less than 1 Mbps when you turn on cable TV anything is upgrade , now i have fiber to building and coaxial to home with speed of 300 Mbps dowload and 100 up ( no optic available old infrastructure )
I’m here because I’m interested in getting it wired internet is getting way too expensive for me and I’m looking for a more affordable option I don’t do gaming or streaming much so speed doesn’t matter I’m not on it every day I had to cut back on a few things I’m here because I want to see if it’s worth it and if there’s any fees I should worry about or is it a flat basic plan
I don't think they have the 15-day trial anymore. I just started with it and got 1 month free. Happy so far bit can you do a video explaining how and why you would use a router?
@TheJabberTech no I sorta got it. I think it's the same reason I need one. My wife's laptop is at the opposite end of the house and rhetoric app shows it at 2 bars. A router would help that? Just make the signal be stronger throughout the house?
I don't know about others but I'm most interested in the LOWEST speeds that you've gotten. This is home internet. If it sometimes throttles down to the point where I can't watch movies reliably then that's a deal killer.
So far gaming is okay for me on it just got it today and it’s good so far it all depends on the signal from the towers in the area so if you’re in a more country environment may not work as well
Got mine a few days ago.... surprisingly good performance... BUT... i had an odd issue... im at the edge of a good band so it randomly bounces between fatnastic internet and barely functional internet. randomly. Im getting a different router so I can add an external antenna since it consistently works great outside. lol.
I had one of the first old 4g only white T-Mobile home Internet routers and everything was fine then I finally called and requested a 5g router they sent one and I had to swap the SIM cards but T-Mobile didn't know this I found out on my own anyway after getting it going it was way faster than my old 4g router. I hooked up my wireless router but it kept disconnecting from the router so I just disconnected it everything was fine for a month then suddenly after a storm my router started dropping connection every 30min or so but at random times. I also only get three bars now and always had 4 before the storm. I'm not sure if it's my router or the tower at fault. Maybe this one doesn't go as far as the old white router. I need to call them just hate to because of the hold times.
I have a Verizon for my phone and I get good speeds. Once the UW is more out, it’ll be even better. I’m curious if tmobiles 5G is gonna as good in my area.
Im looking into this as i just switched to them from verizon and their cell service is incredible! We mostly stream netflix and other platforms but i do play world of warcraft and would like to know if thats gonna be a bad choice with the home internet
I'm ready to dump Spectrum, rates are getting out of control. I have T-mobile mobile service and tested the speed at 82 Mbps dl and 22 Mbps ul, so I'm guessing by what you said, T-mobile home internet will be a bit slower than that. Just for streaming and internet services, will that work for me on 3 tv's? 🤨 Scratch speed test results above, had forgotten that my phone was linked to my Spectrum router. T-mobile's speed was more depressing than the above, 55 Mbps DL and 0.25 Mbps UL. 😳
Thanks for review, Jabber. It's available in my area and I'm thinking about getting it. But I'm concerned about security. Is it like WiFi at a coffee shop where everyone sees your traffic and you can get hacked? I haven't found much information on security.
@TheJabberTech Thanks for reply. I'm just use to wired connections and like a lot of people concerned about security we kinda see 5g networks like wifi, meaning hackable. Thanks again.
@@drizzy-us1oh you do have the option of using your own data (ethernet) cable to hook up to the device itself if you don't want to use wifi connection. They have the port in the back for that, just like any internet modem.
Have it in san diego, ca and service was great with waveform antenna for about 3 months about 120-300mbps but now im struggling to keep 30-50mbps… and tower is about 1 mile ming you visible too 😢
Hello. I saw you need to scan a QR-code in order to complete the installation of the router. What happens if later someone at my house scans the code again? Will that disconnect the modem and we need to activate it again? Or it will already set up and it will just give access to the app and the modem's settings? Thanks!
TMobile has a new modem coming out and of August with 9 antennas (instead of the 4 now) and support for carrier aggregation...should make for better signal and speeds
If anybody can make the same video on Metro by T-Mobile including pricing and everything else if anybody can make the same video on Metro by T-Mobile home internet it would be very very very much appreciated thank you guys and God bless you for making this video because at least this gives me some help but not all the help I need the guy who's making the video thank you and God bless you keep up the great work I'm looking forward to seeing more videos like this from you God bless you
so the speed test is great, however, how many devices will it handle? Most of these type of home internet providers can handle at most 5 devices being on wifi before your speeds drop to below 100. I have over 10 devices using wifi and have never had a problem with my spectrum with 500 mbps.
I’m buying this, may I ask something ?, I’m at the website and I have it on my cart already but it’s asking only for 50 dollar, does that include the device only ? Or does it come with a plan already? Thank you
I signed up for 15 day trial period and am trying it out and so far so good. I have a T-Mobile gateway connected to my own access point (AP) and it works like a charm, however, is there any way to turn wireless AP functions on the T-Mobile gateway off and just use it as a modem? Not sure if it improves performance but looking to avoid any potential interferences between two wireless AP that are close to each other.
Will I be able to use my Linksys AC1200 Dual Smart WiFi Router that I have had for years and works great on the T-mobile 5G internet or do I have to buy a different one? I am not a professional at this but want to get away from high price Comcast internet. Thank you for your advice. Great video
You probably live in a big city. In smaller cities like here, 5G is absolutely horrid. Sometimes we're lucky a webpage can even load. Even 56K dialup was more reliable. I'm not exaggerating. But when it's decent, we're lucky to get 20 mbps down, 4 up. I've moved the unit in multiple locations since T-Mobile has a habit of changing their signals around. I've noticed speeds get much worse at 4pm, which is after school for kids and teens. For the first 6 months (give or take), it was amazing. Around 30 down, 40 up! To me, that's amazing speed. So I'm very sure T-Mobile switches new customers off after half a year or so from their best towers, because it's been almost a year now that we've been dealing with such a horrible experience. Our other only option for internet is AT&T, which is only 15 down, 1 up. For our needs, it's not enough, so we have both. Both ISPs suck. Wish we could get Spectrum or some other cable provider.
I have been getting 20 mbps and they even switched my device as of right now they are saying they are reparing the tower but they have been 6 momths like that
I have had T Mobile Internet for about 4 months. I don't know why it doesn't work well, but I only get download speeds of less than 20 mbps. Is there something I could do to make this work better? Any advise would be appreciated.
@@TheJabberTech Thanks for the advice. I found a new spot near the window closest to the direction of the tower. There was a shelf near to that, and I put it up there. The difference is unbelievable! I am getting 145 Mbps. now! It's the difference between night and day. I have had it by that window before, but until I put it up higher it never made a difference.
Hey, I’ve been using this for about 5 months now, and it’s been about 200 mbps on WiFi but when I plug the Ethernet in to my computer I get max 30mbps. Wondering if this has been a problem with you or if I just need another device.
@@TheJabberTech this has been a big issue for me overall, not sure what the problem is honestly. It’s like it’s throttled at 15 mbps and it won’t go over or under
Hello there! T Mobile has changed my life In Poland.. I have Unlimited data but speed is limited to 90. Gonna change to this 5G home Internet with unlimited speed and data. My ISP provider is utter sh**t and I wend LTE. It changed my life like 180 degrees. I can Upload large 4K files on my YT channel, stream and play games at the same time. Kuddos to them!
Ok. Even on the Unlimited version of this thing, it's EXTREMELY hit or miss. Cause your phone can have perfect 5GUC connection, max bars. And even if their map/data/specs tell them that where you live, the Home Internet Modem could get the same type of connection, be well aware they said "could" not "would" or "will" so in more rural areas? Sorry, stick to Spectrum, Inifinity, etc. Whoever your primary internet provider in that area is. Because in more rural areas, no BS, you'll get MAYBE 30-40 Mbps, 50 on a good day. But on average? 10-15 Mbps. These "modems" T-Mobile put out, work better in major cities....where there's a cellphone tower every ten feet. I'm talking from personal experience, and I returned the device. So yeah, be insanely careful.
Hello. I saw you need to scan a QR-code in order to complete the installation of the router. What happens if later someone at my house scans the code again? Will that disconnect the modem and we need to activate it again? Or it will already set up and it will just give access to the app and the modem's settings? Thanks!
Got tricked… the store sales person said I would be getting the unlimited high speed but it was a lie. Unlimited is not “Yet” available and my $60 per month plan only gave me 100gb of data… that’s about 6 days and then 0.04mbps internet for the rest of the month. Completely unusable for any device.
It depends if it’s the long range 5g or the ultra fast one. Typically it’s in cities that you have the ultra fast ones. I’m .25 miles way and I get 300mb down and 40 up. Ping 15-35 ms
