Read on the bottom of the page: T-Mobile customers who add 5G home internet can pay as little as $30/month with AutoPay and ANY voice line—but only while this offer lasts. Enter your address to see if you qualify.
adding on to this, with autopay, means that they are including the $5 discount you get for doing autopay. so if you DON'T do autopay, you'd be going as low as $35 per month plus the required voice line...not as good of a deal as the title claims.

Yah, tmo home internet sucks - if you have any other wired option (or mmWave even) save yourself the headache - the discount doesn't justify the inconsistent service and bad latency
Wrong! Poster must be from Verizon or Spectrum or a similar competitor. I have T-Mobile Home Internet and I have a Xbox One Series X and use Internet like a normal person does. It works great! I get around 369Mbps to 400Mbps in speed tests. However, it may not be as good for you if you live out in the Poconos for example.
It is STILL unavailable in my area after 2-3 years of advertisement...meanwhile it's available in an area that's 5-10 mins away.... wtf...speed and service is definitely zip code based.
I will give it a try, they quoted me $35 per month. Spectrum recently increased the rate to $85 per month, so this seems the way to go.
I think i qualify to the $200 cash offer, and perhaps I will save again by autopay, I will see when I set up the account.
It seems reasonable to test it out for a few months at least.
I checked the speed of my cell service via my Samsung S23 right now, and I get 872 down and 8.72 up, on a T-Mobile One plan.

I have had TMHI since May 2022 (same Arcadyan KVD21) and for my use case, it works great. Definitely depends on your tower and where it is located in your home. I WFH and game on Xbox, stream , etc and it is totally usable. I am also paying $30. I get like 40 ping and 300/100 on average. Same spot I get 600-1000 on iPhone 14 Pro (better antennas) with 5G. Definitely get a separate mesh router for better WiFi coverage (I have eero pro 6 3 pack).
But to be clear, when fiber gets here I am switching.
I have had TMHI since March. I am very happy with it. Depending on the time of day I get between 600 mbps-800/ Downstream is 20-50. I works great for me but might not for you. As has been said it varies from household to household. BTW, I do not game so latency doesn't matter to me. But it usually runs 20-60 or so.
Can this internet be moved around like a hotspot? Is it possible to use this in my RV while driving around?
You cannot drive around with this as you have to register it to an address. But some T-Mobile phone plans get unlimited 5G Hotspot which of course can move around with you since it's your phone. This might even be better than TMHI because TMHI is much lower priority than phone lines during heavy load times.

My experience was I'd see about half the download speed of my phone but a higher upload speed. I'd guess you'll see 250-300 down during peak times, 400-500 off peak and around 30-50 up consistently
