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.

It's not using an OTA antenna. It's mounting a 2x2 or 4x4 mimo antenna to the mount and running the line along side your coax line into the house to connect to the gateway.
yes I got it now!

Terrain. SoCal rolling hills and from my house the tower is behind a shallow hilltop. Just high enough to block / scramble the signal on the first and second floors but when the gateway is in the attic behind the gable, SINR is 0 or above.

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)
Interesting. Mine went from blazing fast a few months ago and now it just sucks and says not available at my address.

Thanks coloradoman_in_socal and E4300 for the inputs.

I am getting about 160mbps inside house for download but only 5 to 7 MBPS upload on s22u on 5g UC, not sure why upload is slow.
I have ordered tmo internet anyway and will see my luck, hopefully bigger antenna on modem will upload a little faster than my phone.
The closest 5G tower is about 1.5 miles to 2 miles form my house so that may be an issue?
I'm consistently seeing more upload over the router vs my phone on UC. I have Magenta Max and my downloads are always faster on my phone, but upload speeds are faster through the router. Not sure if it's bonding the upload over LTE, but I get 20-50mb up on the router. I've seen the 50 when I'm getting less than 20 on my phone. It's really something you have to test out in your location to see.

I have a similar but reversed effect. I'm seeing much faster dl speeds on the home router vs an S22 Ultra in some rooms. Sometimes it's double the dl speed on the router. But the upload speeds are slow and are around the same for both.

Construction of the walls, microwave running, size and orientation of transmitting/receiving antenna etc. Having another strong WiFi radio nearby can also affect WiFi speed. 2.4GHz has greater penetration. 5GHz greater speed.

I use LAN cable for a device that requires maximum speed and stability. Other WiFi devices are connected via the 2.4GHz band. No need to broadcast the 5GHz band.

Magenta Max has highest priority. Not sure where the grandfathered plans fall exactly. I guess somewhere in the middle.

T-Mobile Home Internet (available in select locations) customers receive the same network prioritization as Heavy Data Users (who are prioritized last on the network) .....

Note: The term "Heavy Data User" does not apply to customers on Magenta MAX, a customer choice we are offering as we explore the expanding capacity of our 5G network, or on a small number of T-Mobile-branded business and government-oriented plans, which are not subject to a threshold.

Data for customers on most T-Mobile-branded plans (and for customers on Sprint-branded plans while using the T-Mobile network), is prioritized before the data of customers on Essentials plans and Metro by T-Mobile or Assurance Wireless-branded plans. Mobile internet plans offered after December 12, 2020 with 30GB or more data per month, and Project 10Million and some other education-focused mobile internet plans, are prioritized next. The vast majority of customers on T-Mobile-branded, Sprint-branded, Metro by T-Mobile-branded, and Assurance Wireless-branded plans receive higher priority than the small fraction of customers who are Heavy Data Users on their rate plan, who are prioritized last on the network after exceeding the relevant threshold for the current billing cycle.

So somewhere in the middle.
