From this post
The multiple ways of using this $10 line for home internet are:
1. T-Mobile Gateway + Cudy N300 or X6 which are wifi only routers to mask hotspot usage with TTL set on the external wifi router. You can use other wifi routers for this purpose but there's a menu page in the Cudy routers which makes setting TTL easy - Courtesy waterchange
1.1 Cudy router like Cudy LT500 or LT18 or the 5G P8 work as a single device with modem + wifi router. Work well for home internet. Nice thing about the Cudy modems is easy TTL (and imei magic if necessary). - Courtesy waterchange
2. M2100 hotspot device - Hit or a miss - native out of the box but less reliable
3. Orbic 5G hotspot device - more reliable than the m2100, however some people have reported throttling after 1st couple of months
4. Gateway + Project Genesis - works most reliably
5. TMOHS1 - ~ 30-50 mbps out of the box, no TTL update required
6. Tmobile Franklin - ~30-50 mbps with TTL update - the most reliable as of right now, however limited speed.
7. M2000 won't pull data from anywhere.
8. GL.iNET Spitz GL-X3000NR easier to use than Cudy and better performance but expensive. Great form factor and performance. Presets for T-Mobile TTL settings and advanced cell features like tower/band lock. External antennas.
9. M3000B works out of the box with T-Mobile version. Has battery preservation features and ethernet port. Some users say to switch 5G mode to NSA if the hotspot restarts frequently in your area.
Add/update if you have more/better info.

They will still lock you to a 2 year EIP even if it's free (They'll make a monthly credit to cover the tablet EIP)
Meaning you'd end up paying $10 for 2 years ($240) for a $129 tablet.
So if you're only doing it for the tablet then it's not worth it
soc code ZB10HSTI is the one you want.

At the end of the day, I may settle on the M2100 for the balance between the weight/portability and speed.

I'm not going to try the M2000 route with custom firmware, it's just too much trouble based on past experiences I've had with custom boot roms and firmware.
There may be an advanced setting to allow it to stay on without a battery installed, or there may be someone who eventually figures out how to do this with a custom firmware setting.

Were you able to see if data counted towards hotspot or on device data?
Edit : Another interesting option is the Inseego FG2000, they now go for sub $200 it seems and have n41/n71.

It has an expiration of 99 months after activation, that's over 8 years!
At least, that's what I was told by the T-Mo Business rep.
IF your Fast.com speed is over 5mbps, probably around 5-7mbps, then you have it, 1080p.
If it's 2.5mbps then you don't, and you have the 480p version.
This HD feature code is still in the T-Mo system.
I called today the T-Mo Business rep, (Not support), and it was added to my account, and the speed above went from 2.5 to 6.5mbps.
I was told that it was added to my account when I placed the order a few months ago but it was never added, until today.
After it was added, I received a text stating:
Thank you for purchasing a T-Mobile HD Video, available for use as of 9/26/2022 06.00 Pacific Time. You may need to reboot your device to activate your pass.
I was told that there will not be any additional monthly charges.
Also see this on speeds, video, etc.:

ANOTHER PLUS of this plan is that it has FREE 5GB of high speed data overseas, at least in the EU.
When I turned the tablet on over there, a message came up saying that one of the benefits of this plan is the free 5GB of high speed data.
After 4GB was used, I received a text stating that:
Looks like you've used 4GB of your free 5GB of high speed data. Once it's used up, we'll keep you going with unlimited data On Us at up to 256Kbps speeds. Want more high speed data? Get an International Pass.
After the free 5GB was used up a similar text message was received:
Heads up! You've used your free 5GB of high speed data. We'll keep you going with unlimited data On Us at up to 256Kbps speeds until you have anew allocation of high speed data available on 9/19/2022. Want high speed data now? Get an International Pass.
So I had the low speed for about a day and the next day the new high speed 5GB allocation kicked in.
From the above texts it looks that this free 5GB feature may be available elsewhere worldwide besides the EU, see below.
See these:
5GB of high-speed data
in 11 European countries.
Unlimited basic data that's 2x faster than before in 210+ countries & destinations, unlimited texting, and $0.25/min calling.

Get 5GB of high-speed data abroad.
Calls, including over Wi-Fi, are $.25/min. (no charge for Wi-Fi calls to US, Mexico, and Canada). Magenta plans: Up to 5GB high-speed data in select Central European countries; otherwise, standard speeds approximately 256 Kbps. Magenta MAX plans: Up to 5GB high-speed data in 215+ countries and destinations, then unlimited at up to 256 Kbps. Additional charges apply in excluded destinations; see www.T‑Mobile.

I'm just looking for the best way to use a hotspot device for this to stream Directv Stream when I travel. I figure if I can get something plug and play, I'll use that as a backup to AT&T and probably drop one of my Mobley plans. I've been paying $46 or so a month for years now for mostly light use.
When I need it though, and it works well, it's awesome. Just few and far between now. Not sure what changed with AT&T and the Mobley plan.

I have a working battery bypass for most of these types of devices including M2100/2000

At times it's fine and still great -- and then at times, for seemingly no reason, it becomes nearly unusable.
I'm now using my Mobley plan alongside this T-Mo plan to have some optionality
