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.

Quote from wbs3333 :
I have, the summary is that based on the terms you are supposed to use it on that address. T-Mobile can check where the gateway is based on the Towers it is connecting to and supposedly the gateway also has GPS which some are guessing is used to confirm address where it is being used, but to be honest they could be using it to gather signal strength data based on your GPS location and not to find the gateway.

Anyways, several users have said that T-Mobile currently is not enforcing or geolocking the gateways and that you can move them around. That doesn't mean that in the future they might. I wouldn't worry too much about it for now.
Thanks for the info, yeah they *could* run GPS at any time then I would just play dumb and/or cancel service.

This is actually meant to be temporary and the T-Mobile B&M even printed out $100 virtual giftcard paperwork.

Why don't you try the $10/month home internet deal from the other thread and stop complaining
$10 tax included. You can find anything even close to that?
btw, just to confirm - tablet lines do not qualify for this plan? I don't use voice too much so I see no reason to pay >$15-30 for voice line (mint-visible let's say), but I'd spend extra 25 for shitty home internet backup (I currently use tablet lines for this)

Inquired about the promo in the store, but since I don't have a voice line, I'm not eligible. Rep said any voice line would work. The cheapest voice line is $20, so it would be $45/mo for me to get the promo.
What postpaid plan is $20?
Connect will not work because its Prepaid

Do a search in this thread, several people where able to get the deal with a $5 watch line that has voice and data. Use maybe the word "watch" as your search keyword.

So this gateway won't even allow devices within the same network to talk to each other? It isolates the clients from each others?

[Update]
Never mind, it was a firewall issue on the devices I was trying to connect to. It was setup not to allow connections from a different subnet and the new gateway is using a different one.

Here is the screenshot of the speed test.
Attachment 12681685
Mine usually does about 400+ down, 20ish up with around 30ms latency to my iphone through 5ghz wifi. The highest speeds ive seen at home on my phone are around 700/60. Its so good that i haven't even bothered checking the true speed directly at the modem.

Your results look like you're possibly limited by your wifi. Looks like wireless-N speeds to me, especially based on the latency.

Try plugging your pc into the modem directly with an ethernet cable to see the real speed. For wifi, you'll want to make sure your devices can handle at least wireless-AC1200-1300Mbps.

My older devices on wireless-N600 sucked. They were doing about 40Mbps and slowing down my whole network until I upgraded them to dual band AC hardware.

5G in most areas in the US is a joke. Even slower than 3G.

Folks, just wanted to share this, if you are really interested what to do with one line requirement.

I got my Gateway yesterday delivered, set it up, and activated the voice line sim that I had ordered along with Gateway. My voice line was default set to Magenta plan $70.

Today I had a chat with an agent and mentioned that I really don't need additional line. Could they put me on $5 plan for tablet that I have and can use. Without a glitch they said yes and put me on $5 plan that is useful my tablet and now my total comes to $25 for Home Internet and $5 for tablet, $30 (Yes, Taxes and Fees included!!) in total for life for unlimited data.

btw, I haven't located the best spot for gateway but with just 3 bars I get at least 280 Mbps down and 40+ Mbps Up.
I only have the $10 connect prepaid line. Do you think I can add a $5 watch line and qualify for it?

Prepaid and postpaid are 2 different accounts. You need a postpaid plan.

I'll take the bait. What are you talking about? T-Mobile overall has the fastest 5G in the US. I rarely get under 200mbps down, with low latency. I average around 400mbps on 5G UC. Some places I get over 900mbps. 3G could never. 🙄🙄

It says unavailable @ my address. I used a few addresses in LA / OC / IE to no avail.

Anyone in Southern California (Los Angeles County) getting this promo to work?
I'm in suburb of LA. I got it installed a couple days and replaced spectrum as my primary internet.

The keyword here is "some area". The coverage is very spotty. The "overall" or "average" figures don't mean a thing when you live in an area with no coverage.
