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.

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...

My first bill generated. First partial month was free because of how the $25 discount applied. It was prorated and the bill credit wiped out the entire amount.

In 12 years, between time Warner, comcast and fios, I can't recall a single time I ever lost internet service. Of course when I lost electricity it went down, but never once by itself.

Anyway, cancelled fios today. This thing works just fine for us. Everyone is home for the holiday break so we have two gamers on, two working from home, and streaming on the TVs all at the same time. Also nest cameras going. Not one issue so far.

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.
Had to run back to the store(picked up the newest,3rd generation gateway) to exchange for the Arcadyan(2nd generation) gateway.
The newest one was terrible...Wired internet had a "globus" sign(no internet) like 80% of time,while wi-fi worked,but slowly(40 down 20 up).
With Arcadyan-no problem with a wired internet at all and my speed 170-220 down and 60-70 up.

Just tried this out a couple months ago. Speed was around 150mbs and I only had my one Nvidia shield hooked up to it and couldn't even barely watch YouTube with all the buffering. No thanks. If you only surf the web then go for it lol.

I tried 6 months ago, total waste and getting the refund was an issue too. I managed to get the refund. Hopefully, they fixed all the issues.

Just got my first bill and seems I am charged full price $50 for the partial month and next month. Contacted customer service and they said I need to wait for 1-2 billing cycle for the promotional credit to come in. Anyone having similar experience?

I thought it showed just cutting monthly price in half when I signed. Didn't expect the promotion come in as a credit.

I got charged $25+$1.4 fees for the next coming month, and $0+$1.4 fees for the past half months. Total $27.8 for home internet on the billing statement.

3rd gen gateway is owned by a French company. 2nd gen gateway comes from Taiwan/China. Stay away from French/Italian hardware and software.

I've seen speed approaching 700Mbps. We regularly see 450-550 down/50-60 up early morning with 4 bars signal.

Think of it this way, when you are traveling around with your cellphone, is there some place you have no signal and some place you have good signal? If you go to some place that has no (or very poor) signal, in reality, you can't even connect to internet or very slow. If you are at some place that has very good signal, then depend on how crowded the cellphone tower you connect to, it can be <10Mbps (extremely crowded) to >500Mbps (not very crowded).

If you go back and read all the posts in this thread, many people has posted all kind of different speed. I think people should take what number people post with a grain of salt.

As many posts before mentioned, the speed and ping varies by location. Location will play a huge role in stability and consistency of connection. Kind of like a "location lottery".

And when you add tons of new users because of this deal, the chance of winning this "location speed/ping lottery" is getting slimmer. And this deal likely has big impact to existing home internet users also.

Remember Tmobile doesn't guarantee the minimum speed you get. The only way you know is try out few months first and then decide if this is right for you. Most of new users hopefully join within that time while the deal is still active so can get a better picture what kind of speed, ping, and disconnection, etc you get after those few months.

Sagemcom is European? Totally sounds like one of those made-up English words that Chinese companies use when they sell things on Amazon. laugh out loud
