I recommend their internet service. Me and my girlfriend have it and it's not only faster than what we had from Spectrum with better reliability and surprisingly about the same latency. It's perfectly fine for gaming and we're usually streaming on multiple devices and gaming at the same time.

FWIW I submitted for the December promo and I'm still waiting. 6-8 weeks is what they say. Pretty happy with the service though, I use a Keep Connect and reset every 2 days and have had almost no issues.

I use my own router for the internet and I got no issues I Remember when I first bought it the internet would disk connect at night and hit like 2 mpbs but after setting up my own router haven't had any problems since and avg around 200 mpbs for $50 a month 3 years and I've been a member since 2022

What are the maximum devices this can handle and/or allow? Would the speed at my home be similar to if I run a speed test using a 5G T-Mobile cell phone with WiFi turned off?
No t mobile home internet is at its lowest piority when it comes to speed but me personally I avg around 200 mpbs sometimes it's more and sometimes it's less I am part of the NYC area

Some streaming services can have issues if you live in a congested area because the router keeps changing out ip address a lot. If you're not a heavy data user, it's a good plan for single family households.
Yea apparently it's messed with Hulu live TV but things might've changed

So, just a heads up, if you stream a lot of content over streaming services or do some completive gaming this is not for you. Most 500mb plans with cable or fiber providers will be more consistent and have no data caps like this plan does. This is a great plan for very rural people or those still stuck on dsl.
For what it's worth I'm blowing well past the data "limits" and have never noticed a slow down. Using 2-3tb a month and I might get a very rare hiccup while gaming if we have multiple tvs streaming and I'm in the middle of heavy uploading. Maybe I'm just lucky due to my location but I never would have guessed they have any form of throttling in place. I keep going back and forth if a switch to AT&T fiber is worth an extra 50 or so per month but can't seem to pull the trigger considering T-Mobile's bang for the buck. I sound like a shill but it's just been that good here in socal

How much are you actually paying? For 65$, you can get at&t fiber, and it's at 500mb. Even the 300mb would be an improvement for your family. If you had their cellphone service, I believe it's even lower of a price. I don't fault families for trying something to save money, but having a dedicated line over a glorified cellphone hotspot doesn't compare. The latency alone would be almost double what you have now and usually tmobile after 1.2tb start to throttle the speeds down to 82mb down i believe 2mb up.

I was thinking of getting this for my elderly mother who overpaying Verizon for TV and Internet. When I use her address (metro type area) it says not available. I believe this is because the area is over saturated. Could I use my Tmobile account where it is available and place the equipment in her home about 10 miles away. Would they care if it wasn't using the towers near my house?

T-Mobile limits 5G Home Internet in all areas to maintain signal quality for all cellular users and Home Internet users.
According to its T&C the Home Internet gateway CANNOT be used outside its original permitted location or the account will be terminated.
It's easy to determine its location.
BUT, if you call CS and tell them you're moving, they MAY allow you to take the gateway to the new location.
Probably won't if you ask within a month or two after the gateway activation at the originally permitted location.

Use it at your location until you get the $300 egift card and the $250 cashback card and then decide your next steps.
That should take a few months.
If denied the move, can always cancel then.

In the meantime, you may take the gateway to the other location for a 10 minute test to see if the 5G signal is really available there and it's not a matter of simple saturation. Don't use it there any longer or risk account termination.

Verizon Fios 300/300Mbps should cost less than $50/mo. That's just for Internet, not added TV service.

Is this better than Comcast $25 a month?

Also, getting the following error:
T-Mobile 5G Home Internet is not currently available at your address. But you are eligible to receive Home Internet LITE!

LTE not worth it.

I heard from someone that you can't use your own router with the 5G tmobile router (pass through only)?

Anyone have first hand knowledge about this?

No way I've found to set the router to pass through. Using my own router in addition to theirs so double nat but that's not caused me any issues thus far.
