Here is my review of the new T-Mobile Home Internet 5G Gateway. T-Mobile utilizes a wireless 5G Gateway to deliver 5G Home Internet to your home.
T-Mobile's 5G Gateway Device works in tandem with Wi-Fi 6, which is the next generation of Wi-Fi technology. Once you sign up for a plan, the 5G Gateway is delivered to your home. No complicated installation. Just a plug. No cable guys required. It's operated via an app you can download to your phone or computer. Once you download the app, you just scan a barcode on your 5G Gateway, find a good spot in the room for it, and get connected in minutes. $60 month with Autopay

I received the box today! It works perfectly and I have 20 devices on it!😇😇

@michaelmarr416 2 месяца назад

I have the black unit and it has exceptionally good service. It can connect to 65 devices. I get no pings and no down service except maybe during a severe weather storm.

@isolde1802 Месяц назад

Got mine yesterday and it works great. I have the same gateway as you but I got the home internet package for 50 bucks a month. I don't have their phone service.

@jayko23 2 месяца назад

I was able to take the router with me to a hotel I was staying at, and it worked like a charm, better than at my house. I am planning on taking it with me when I go camping. I heard you are not supposed to do that, but in my case , it worked. I got the business account , maybe thats why.

@GillisDaKid 2 месяца назад

That’s exactly why.

@mitchelkoffel3801 2 месяца назад

Yes and the business Internet you can use all the data you want and you get priority and they don't slow you down like the home internet during demand times. I use it for my business and yes sometime take it with me too. but i also have a hotspot that is truly unlimited also. Just a side note my Daughter racks up like a billion tera just playing her games and yet to see them cut me to a slower speed. I do have Service channel crap also (Cable internet) but highly unreliable. but that is for my servers . and this is also used as a backup if it goes down.

Very clear and helpful video! Thank you! I got my white Gateway tonight and will work on setting it up tomorrow. Hope it's a good as you suggest!

@xmanime2213 3 месяца назад

does this one have where you can have Port Forwarding? i play on my switch daily and i have a problem with the old and there is no port forwarding on it does this one fix it?

@GillisDaKid 3 месяца назад

I don't think so but T-Mobile will let you try it out.

@billbillw 3 месяца назад

No port forwarding with their standard Home Internet. If you sign up for a business plan, you can pay a few $ extra for a static IP and then you can do some forwarding, but the pricing structure is different. The business service uses different hardware.

two days in.. it's gr8 for someone who doesn't game or use their pc for school work & just like have one or two phones connected & maybe a light laptop. compared to verizon's 9ms, i'm averaging anywhere from 30-75ms. not terrible, just can't compete.

Just ordered this and saw the receipt it’s a white gateway like this. Very excited to use this for my HomePods and my side kf the house. My roomate the wifi router in the basement. When I moved in she using the wifi she complained that the wifi was slow. Not gonna hire an isp to install in a house I am renting a room in. Easy installation from tmobile and it’s just for me and my devices.

Thanks for the review. How does tmobile 5g internet service compare to Verizon fios service?

If you're eligible for Unlimited service it works just as good as fios. You have to try it out and see for yourself. It really depends on where you live.

I can not get my printer to work with the gateway 5 g , been working for a month, can anyone help me ?

@michaelfoxbrass 2 месяца назад

1 Power off the T-Mobile gateway AND your printer. 2 Power up the T-Mobile gateway and wait for it to finish. 3 When the T-Mobile gateway is done powering up - Power up your printer. 4 Printer should reconnect. 5 If not, T-mobile support is excellent.

The new white gateways has the ability to connect a antenna on it. I know people who have the old Grey cylinder models, and their network speeds are great. If it's working don't bother switching.

@tnmacris Месяц назад

I have had 2 of these. When they work they are good. Mine crashes at least once a day (usually more) and requires me to power cycle it in order to restore service. I thought it was a bad unit so I had it replaced. New one does the same thing. It drops all wifi connections and then becomes completely unresponsive, does not react to button clicks etc. I requested a different kind of hardware and TM is telling me it will cost another $15/mo for the improved HW. I am like, just send me something that doesn't crash for the price we agreed to. Not happy.

The older black units are better. Have both side by side and the download is slightly slower with the white unit. Upload speed is 5 times less than the black unit. Seems like a downgrade on T-Mobile's part for these "newer" units.

Verizone 5g home internet is wayy better I can get up to 2gb of download speed and a ping of 20 to 30, t mobile sucks

@behlenberg4459 3 месяца назад

Stay away from this crappy service. Average ping is 5 to 10 times longer than its wired competitors. 5G service is throttled to a max of 300 while a modern cell phone at the same location is double to triple this device. Also congestion is a significant issue when T-Mobile over sells it’s network capacity. And when you call and complain T-Mobile’s response is well this isn’t for everyone. Best advice is buyer beware because T-Mobile’s customer service is pathetic at best.

@billbillw 3 месяца назад

I've been a customer for over 2 years. There is no cap at 300Mbps. I have had a max DL speed of 514Mbps back in January. My average over more than 50 Speedtests in the last year is somewhere 350Mbps range. Some days it is slower, some faster. Yes, a handset in the same location is faster, but they use newer modems that can do more band aggregation. Ping issues can be solved by implementing SQM features in your router. I always recommend running an external router with this service. It takes the load off the unit and it runs significantly faster.
