No way to manually update the firmware, but I can factory reset them later. Shouldn't be difficult.
Avoid mesh if you require the best possible WiFi speed and stability. A good router has much more processing power and better software. You need raw processing speed to handle +60 users.

I chatted with a rep through the mobile app. Denied for the promo.
Tried again in an hour and successfully signed up. This one knew about the promo whereas the first one asked me to send a screenshot of it.
2 days later, received a text on phone that a line was added. Checked account and saw a new phone number attached with no details.
Next day, I can click on the line and see the following:

I am set to receive the modem today.
The performance of the 5G gateway is better than expected. On my phone (recent model, Samsung Flip 4), my 5G speed is only 16/3 in my area. But my 5G internet is able able to get 160/7 most of the time. There are definitely variations depending on time of day and placement of the gateway . The signal strenth indicated on the gateway is only "Good"(the middle bar).
The only problem I am facing is that the best placement of the 5G gatewayis no where near my home main router, and there is no way to get a ethernet cable between them. So I will need to use wireless bridging to the main router. I have not done so but I expect to take a performance hit.
Unless I miss something, the T-Mobile 5G gateway is so primitive in terms of router functionality, it is not adequate as a main router.
Which antenna did you get exactly?
1. MIMO 4x4 or 2x2?
2. "Panel" (i.e. directional) or "Log Periodic"?
Also found out today from a neighbor that AT&T lit up fiber in my division 2 weeks ago, going to go with their $55 300/300 plan, they should be installing it tomorrow.
I'm glad FWA providers like TMO and VZW exist, they have the legacy providers such as ATT, Comcast and Charter upping their game and staying competitive.
