    We live in a rural area and have had t-mobile home internet for 4 years. I have zero complaints. Flat $50 bucks a month and we can do everything we want to do with the speeds the service offers. We have RUclips tv, my kids play the latest and greatest video games, my wife has a home business, we have movie streaming services. No complaints here.

    Glad I got in on T-Mo Home Internet years ago. Still have my Nokia Trash Can and it works perfect for me. I am one of those that goes over 1.2TB of Data Per Month. The couple of times I thought I was being throttled I just restarted my router and things improved. Not the right solution for everyone, but certainly is good enough for me.

    T-Mobile's selling point for me is a FREE subscription to the MLB package which I would subscribe to with or without T-Mobile. Comcast's Now Internet which you have already covered is definitely bringing competition to fixed wireless internet. If not for the MLB package, I might give that a shot. For now I'm sticking with T-Mobile which I have had for over 18 months.

He said the speed is faster and it is cheaper. I don't notice a difference in speed but I am saving $15. a month. My son plays video games and streams TV. I stream TV (24/7) and use my computer.

    On the south shore of western Suffolk county in NY the service is absolute junk in my experience. They say that they de-prioritize under heavy load but in reality, with speeds dropping to under 2mb/s it is unusable as home internet. When you call to complain they will tell you that there is a problem with the towers. The trouble is they never send crews out to repair the towers.

My gateway came with a bad SIM card and I was initially annoyed; however, a quick trip to the T-Mobile store and all was good. I give T-Mobile big props for top-tier customer service. I'm very pleased so far.

    I live in rural PA. I had DLS from the phone company which provided horribly slow speeds. If the microwave oven was running I would loose internet. I do not have the option of cable or fiber because no one runs lines in my area. I looked into Verizon wireless home internet because that's who my cell phone is with, but home internet was not available at my home address, so that wasn't an option. My only option is T-Mobile or now StarLink. T-Mobile is still the most affordable option for me. The speeds I am getting with T-Mobile is higher than the advertised speeds for StarLink so unless my speeds significantly tank, I will be staying with T-Mobile. For my internet needs it is all I need.

Taking a look here I am seeing that congestion may be the cause of the issues you are experiencing, especially if you experience it at the same time every day- when there are a lot of people in the same area trying to use T-Mobile service, it can cause speeds to slow down for everyone.

    It's signal strength or speed is probably no better than the last time it had the other router so I'm not really interested in this Channel and don't send me no notifications about any other internet service please 0:35 0:35 0:35

      It's simple this is on you, and not this channel, because if you don't like a channel on RUclips then you're free to unsubscribe from if you are, and then if a video from that channel still does pop up in your feed you can use the hamburger menu next too it, and tell RUclips not to recommend that video to you. Again no one forced this on you, you did it yourself.
