Great price but most of the reviews state it isnt consistant speeds and has frequent drops.

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

I had this from its inception, originally it wasn't too bad-as time went on the signal got worse and buffered like nuts, 3 TV's a pc and phone. I finally gave up after 7 months and terrible to non-existent customer service. The price is definitely tempting, btw, their newer modem was worst than their first, I had a pc fan underneath to cool it down, no difference.

If true it's a no brainer. I have the service. You can expect 100mbs-300mbs. Down time nonexistent.

If you're thinking gaming or torrenting - forget it, they will throttle it even if you have good 5G coverage and towers next to your house.

What plan are you on? Even after talking to a rep, i still do not see $25 discount in my account. I am on Simple Choice
Where does it show discount or cost in t-mobile app? Per line?

Anyone else's app show "your plan is T-Mobile home Internet"? I can't see phone usage, and it seems like the app thinks this home Internet is the main account?

Fyi on discount, it shows on a full web browser after device is shipped.

I got:

CQI: 13
RSSI: -73
RSRQ: -9
RSRP: -82
SNR: 24

All numbers seem to be within the ideal range.

Hardwired, I get roughly the same results so I don't think it's a WiFi issue. I'll try a reset later.
I would try another unit if reset doesn't help. Also possible that the transmission tower is overloaded with users.

What is the speed range for two bars? That's what I get inside the house. I'm getting fluctuating 15-40 Mb down and less than 5 Mb up and sometimes drops under 2Mb up.
Need at least three bars for reasonable performance.

On the same boat, added the line on Thursday through T-Force. All you can do is wait and pray you don't have to waste more time later we T-Force and that it gets automatically applied.
Finally got Tforce to explain that I can't get this $25/mo plan as long as I also have an Insider discount applied to the account. It's one or the other according to the terms, even though some have been able to get them combined.

Edit: Same thing applies for the perks at work discount if you have that

got it today and set up the hotspot/router thing

most spots in my house it can barely touch 50Mbps, with 1 odd area getting 200Mbps

charter gets 300-400Mbps all day

not worth it for me, doesn't seem reliable or fast enough to save $20 per month

Don't get too excited. More likely than not his/her service credits will be canceled very soon since this violates the terms of this deal.

Something that might make this a dealbreaker for anyone who works from home or is streaming a lot of 4K (or otherwise using a lot of bandwidth), I was told by a T-Mobile CSR there is a soft data cap of 100GB per month at full 5G speeds "Heavy Data User" even for this home internet offering. For example I am seeing approx. 600Mbps at the gateway device for 5G, but was told I'd be throttled down to 4G speeds if I exceeded that 100GB threshold in a billing cycle. When I asked what 4G speeds meant, the CSR told me 256kbps, which I figured could not be right, because that is way too slow to be useable. I asked for him to repeat, and asked if he meant 256Mbps, to which he said no, Kbps (lol)

I then asked if I could pay more to remove the cap, and he said there's no way to increase it. For comparison's sake, Xfinity high speed internet usage caps at 1.2TB before they charge you more (an extra $10 for additional 50GB additional, never exceeding $100 additional), but they don't *throttle* speed. An important distinction for those who work remotely or otherwise need reliable high-speed internet.

For reference I activated my T-Mobile 5G gateway 3 days ago and I'm already somehow over 30GB (could be PS5 CoD update downloads or something), and at this rate will prob exceed 100GB by end of week. Then if service degrades significantly to an unusable speed I plan to return the device to my local T-Mobile within the 15 day trial window. I'll update/reply here when I exceed it.

Source: https://www.xfinity.com/learn/int...rvice/data
"Customers who use more than 1.2 TB of data in a month for the first time will not be billed for exceeding the limit. After that, blocks of 50 GB will automatically be added to your account for an additional fee of $10 each plus tax. Charges will not exceed $100 each month, no matter how much data you use."

I wasn't able to find T-Mobile's Home Internet disclaimer about throttling anywhere other than with their generic internet disclaimers on the deal page:

"Network Management: Service may be slowed, suspended, terminated, or restricted for misuse, abnormal use, interference with our network or ability to provide quality service to other users. See T-Mobile.com/OpenInternet for details. See Terms and Conditions (including arbitration provision) at www.T-Mobile.com for additional information."

And once you click on the T-Mobile.com/OpenInternet link you get
"T-Mobile Home Internet (available in select locations) customers receive the same network prioritization as Heavy Data Users, but should be less likely to experience congestion because the equipment is stationary and available in limited areas."

That would really be a bummer, although I personally don't believe that the cap will actually happen. I read reports on Reddit about power users who leeched north of 50 TB (yes, terabytes) per month and they didn't even get a warning. Not to say that this won't ever be an issue but 100 GB seems very low nowadays. If the data usage feature in the app is any indication, I should have reached 100 GB in about 5 days…
