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.

has anyone pulled this off with an old sprint plan mobile family plan? How did you do it?

I was told I needed to add a new tmobile line or transfer over my existing (sprint lifetime price lock number) to tmobile to get the offer, but would then lose my lifetime price lock with sprint.

You need to have them convert you to the T-Mobile billing system in order to take advantage of the deal.

I'm surprised that they haven't already migrated you. The said I would lose service on 2 lines if I did not migrate back in May I believe. As far as losing my plan, still using the Kickstart program unlimited everything deal from June 2018. Still have those same 2 lines at $15 each and just added the Unlimited Internet service for $25 a month no problem. No problem with the $100 rebate, which the second rep said I was not eligible for. Already received the code and instructions for the rebate, no problem. The Rep was more interested in finding out how I got the phone deal, to which I replied "Slickdeals" baby. LMAO
Anyhow, just received the T-Mobile 5G gateway tonight, giving a go in the morning.

Thanks OP and for all the posts here for providing helpful info, and Merry Christmas

I noticed something off since I activated the tmobile router a week aor so ago.
My normal carrier (Verizon) text messages have been failing inbound and outbound on several occasions since turning the 5g router on.
My wife has experienced this, and our son.

Curious if anyone else who still has their old network up and running and the tmobile router if they have encountered this.
As long as I am on my old network it hasn't failed for texts.

I'm encountering a similar issue where my phone drops to T-Mobile's EDGE network when connected to TMHI WiFi.
I suspect it has something to do with WiFi Calling not working, and some spots of my house having slightly worse reception.

I'd have to toggle airplane mode off/on in order for my phone to reconnect to 5G, or just turn off WiFi completely and my phone stays connected to 5G fine.

Set the T Mo unit to broadcast two channels with separate SSIDs, one 2.4GHz and the other 5GHz. 2.4GHz has better penetration and probably more compatible with older protocols.

I'm an existing customer since last year with the Nokia router. The service is definitely dependent on where you live and how close the towers are and if there are a lot of obstructions.

One way to test the service is to use your smartphone with 5G throughout the day and see what kind of speeds you get with TMobile. It's not perfect because you can leave your router by the window and your phone might have better antennas, but it's something.

If in doubt, get the service and if it sucks, just cancel. There are no strings attached but you are out $25.

I opened a second internet line after calling them. The customer service representative mentioned that my ONE plan is eligible, and that I could cancel my first internet line and not lose the promo on the second internet line after 90 days.

Just my 2 cents for those existing customers in the same situation as I am.

Would love to see where this was pulled from: "Only Unlimited Home Internet/Small Business Internet is eligible for this offer; Home Internet Lite and Small Business Internet Lite plans are not eligible"

Small Business Plans aren't eligible, I spoke to T-Mobile about this today, they denied me the promo. On Magenta Business Plan.

How is the new router working for you? I'm in the exact situation. The new router is terrible and I'm noticing lower speeds and internet disruption.

Then someone told you BS because it is eligible. I have a business account myself and went to the store and signed up for the "home internet" which shows as SBI on My T-Mobile. As I walked out the door I already got the text confirming the promotion.

after one week, so far so good. I can even say the UL and Ping are better and more consistent than the old Nokia trash can. I am probably the lucky one who lives close to the tower (I can see the tower on a hill above with good line of sight but not close enough for radiation concern) and the area is not over subscribed. So I went from $50 a month to $25, plus a gateway upgrade, and perhaps $100 rebate card, this is slick.

Folks getting >100Mbps speeds are lucky; I'm getting at best 30-60 Mbps down, 10-30 Mbps up.

I live in the suburbs of a large metro area, in the middle of three towers, but trees and small foothills block direct line-of-sight to all of them. Two of them are along a freeway, but the Arkadian device, same as my mobile phone, is locking onto the third tower about a mile away. From cellmapper.net, I can see that the cell I'm locked to is pointed towards my direction; not so many houses, but a large road with 3 churches, 2 schools, as well as the car traffic.

So this is not going to be able to replace my Comcast 800/25 Mbps cable Internet anytime soon. That said, will keep it as backup since essentially free for four month assuming the $100 prepaid card shows up - could be handy during winter storm season. And just today, Comcast was doing upgrades to the overhead lines all around the neighborhood, so Internet was down for about 6 hours; so the T-mobile Internet came in handy already today as a backup. After Comcast came back online though, the new overhead cables apparently were overdue, a Speedtest from my router showed 840 Mbps down, previously I guess the old lines were degraded that I'd never seen more than 700 Mbps....
Added update to my previous post, this thing is definitely saving my butt twice in two weeks, Comcast has another outage this morning, this time an unplanned one affecting Internet, TV, and voice for about 100 homes in my neighborhood. They expect to be back up in about three hours, but meanwhile I've got this plugged into the home wifi router so everything's working without any reconfiguration.

Down in the basement where the router is, the T-mobile speeds are not even as good as upstairs, so about 20-30 Mbps down, but for just a few hour Comcast outage, I'm not going to try to hack an Ethernet drop from upstairs.

Seriously wishing to get a dual-WAN router now to have T-mobile hooked in permanently as a failover Internet connection to Comcast, but the TP-link Deco M9 mesh wi-fi router has been working so seamlessly for us for a few years now...
