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.

Well, I am terrified this AAL will backfire on me. I had several free AAL promos previously on our Magenta Business plan, along with an insider discount. The rep today "changed my plan" to another Magenta plan that allowed for more than 8 lines (thought Magenta had a higher limit?) And now all but my insider discount is gone from my account description...

Just got my modem. Internet is good but my buffer bloat is unbearable. My cameras are stuttering every 2 seconds.

My wifi is fine and similar
It's just Ethernet that's the problem. I prefer to use my own wireless router, and my house is very wired up. So I'd like to see the Ethernet speeds match the wifi.

I still have one more floor to go up too if need be with the Sage and can just drill a hole from the upstairs closet to the downstairs one.
When I get a chance, I'll test over ethernet. I would use your existing equipment in AP mode and let the T-Mobile unit handle the routing.

Check your signal strengths. Also, for some reason they don't seem to run full speed at first. Not sure if it's updates or what. What is your upload speed?

You should have read this thread before doing what you did. A simple search in this thread with keyword sprint would have saved you a lot of pain. Still it is T-Mobile's rep fault for not canceling your account though. I would definitely keep fighting that.
I started down this fateful journey the day the deal began - there was not a lot of Sprint feedback before all this began. Only after have we learned we are 2nd class citizens in the T-Mobile world!!

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."
Update: today I am at 130GB and speeds are still fast. I ran a test on fast.com and still gettiong 300Mbps wireless (assuming higher than that wired). Will report back again if it changes.

I stay away from franchise stores. I found an amazing rep on Twitter, and honestly everyone I've talked to on T-Force on Twitter has been great. Corporate store reps cannot do anywhere near as much as T-Force. The only reps that outrank T-Force is the executive team.
Who is T-Force??
I did a search for them and did not find them. What is their Twitter name?

Supposedly you can pair it with the $5 watch plan or the $20 voice/text plan with no data

Looks like they finally flipped the switch on the tower by my house as I'm seeing 600+mb speeds on my phone, maybe I'll give this another try

so the website says it's not available for my address even though I had the service earlier this year and now that the speeds are fixed it shows it's not available in my area (right by a tower)

They only allow so many users per area.
