Just an FYI if you're just getting this for the "free" tablet. The tablet is a Galaxy A7 lite which only costs $200 ($129 on Amazon)

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

Not on the "free" tablet, lol. In all seriousness, don't choose the plan with TE in the title as that one is tax exclusive (you have 2 choices)

soc code ZB10HSTI is the one you want.

Try downloading tmobile app in the tablet and just create an account. You'll see your phone number, usage, device, and bill.
They just sent me an email with the phone number so I was able to signup. I dont see a chat option in the online browser version of their site, have to try the app on a phone.

Just got my MR6400 from project Genesis, speeds were about 65mbps and 20mbps using the Dish network. Unlocked the device this morning (dc unlocker $10euro) and able to plug in the T-Mobile SIM and worked with no issue. Speed is similar to what dish is giving ~65-78mbps and took it out while running errands and got 178mbps on the T-Mobile SIM. I'll check my account later tonight and see what the usage counts as, but I signed up with ein so I don't get the detailed usage data... Might just try using up 10gig and see if I get throttled after that.

That's the setup I'm trying to do. Please post an update! I'm following this thread to see other responses too thanks

Data point: I'm running the Nok 5g21 with the gl.inet gl-ar300m16. I set the TTL to 68 and I'm getting 60-70 Mbps download speeds. Kinda slow seeing how I'm in a 5g area. Could anyone tell me if it's normal for the Nok to show up under "Equipment" in my t-mobile account? Can't imagine t-mobile being too happy with that lol

So with my MR6400 the usage is reported as "Web Access" as seen on my T-Mobile business account page (EIN signup) when I use the internet on the free samsung tablet it also says "Web Access", hopefully this means it's not using the 10gig hotspot allowance. I guess I'll need to find a large file to download and go over the 10gig limit and see if my speed is throttled.

So far this Orbic 5G stinks, I think I might have a dud. It keeps dropping to 4G. It shows 4G but I can tell I'm getting 5G speeds on wifi. Sometimes it's clearly 4G speeds. When I plug in anything into the usb port either to charge or to tether, the speeds slow to a crawl. I don't understand why. Which means I wouldn't want to charge it while using it.

This is the 3rd device I've tried after the tmohs1. And I can say that other than not having 5G it's been the most consistent of all of them.

Only one device left to try and if it doesn't work. I will admit defeat and put that sim in an ipad.

On a sidenote: I have an unlocked Galaxy Fold 4. I put the tmobile sim in there and it pulled 5g UC speeds. Sweet Jesus that's what I want.

Funny Anecdote from my use of Orbic 5G over last few days.
I usually have the device connected to my laptop using the USB C cable for internet via tether. I usually get full bars of LTE signal with speeds ranging upto 150/25.

However, recently I noticed that when I disconnect the USB C cable from the laptop, the Orbic switches to a 5G connection. Seems to me that the USB C may be causing some sort of interference. Also seems consistent with @invincible1914's post above. With that being said, 5G didn't really help as the speeds on 5G (full bars) were lower than LTE at 105/15 max.

That's unfortunate to hear, likely I think you are correct and have a dud. My billing cycle just ended while using mine for most of the month with no issues. I get full bars at home and speeds up to 300/50.

I use the wifi 99% of the time, and most of the time it's plugged into the charger at home or in the car but never to a PC.

I've seen it drop to 4G at times when on the road and it does slow down quite a bit when coverage is less than ideal (but still more than the TMOHS1). Once it was not getting any data and I just needed to reboot it.

Just plugged mine in to test into my laptop and it initiates the connection and stays on 5G, weird, I wonder if there's different revisions, my software version shows V2.0.3.4_BVZRT.

my sw version is same as yours as well. unless I can get another unit in the same place, there is no way to actually isolate the issue as such.

If I pull out the usb while doing a speed test, you can literally see the speeds jump up the second I pull it out. This doesn't happen through ethernet though. My biggest issue is the constant 4G. This device is $300. I got the TMOHS1 off ebay for $15 and it can do that.

Yes it does. They can block it at any time. So far they haven't cared. They need to show subscribers going up

Can you tell me exactly how to get to the page that shows "web access"? Every time I log into my T-Mobile business account, I keep forgetting which page is actually helpful.
