I wonder if this is portable as long as you have an oulet for power?

We switched to Verizon's service to determine whether we'd do better. We have. Not only is it more stable but the gateway provides for features that the primitive T-Mobile unit didn't provide-- especially port forwarding. We did have had to power cycle the gateway 3 times in the past month. But this was less frequent than with T-Mobile. I've been a T-Mobile cell customer for more than 16 years now and I found that the support provided by the T-Mobile Home Internet business did not match my experience with the mobile voice side of the business for the most part. I got great support if I reached a US call center (not surprisingly best times were during weekday business hours).
But you wanna hear something you're not gonna expect? I might serious consider taking on the T-Mobile $25 offer if they will have me back at that rate. This would give me backup.
Why am I resisting the local cable provider? You can guess, can't you. The industry players have awful reputations. And they put data caps on the plans.
As for portability:
The mobile providers determine your eligibility based on your location. So they already know that location is crucial to the viability of service at a given site. I suspect you can get away with going on a road trip to one major metro area to another. But I also suspect the carrier will not be happy seeing you violating the understanding-- and of course they can readily determine what cells your gateway would be accessing. This is not a substitute for StarLink-- even if you want to avoid Elon Musk.
Tmob knows they can't blanket an area so only limit availability to any tower location. If you're interested don't wait to sign up.

Spouse and I both work from home. I can have teams/webex calls that last 8 straight hours
Is T-Mobile internet even something that would work for us?
Definitely try the service before you cancel your existing one.
They also have another antenna that's better if you have direct site of the tower and a 4x4 if you want to do all the antenna connections it has. I've heard that its better to do 2 2x2 antennas though but not confirmed that

That being said, I average about 300-400 mbit down and 30-50 mbit up, with occasional peaks to 700 mbit down and 80 mbit up.
