[@prowlermadmax2]

finally the 5G home internet was available in my area after being on a waiting list for a year. I truly love it, i can now watch 4K video with no buffering, I'm serious NO BUFFERING.

[@Triple_M]

Nice!! I am happy to hear that it is working well for you. Enjoy!

[@Bringmetheshrews]

Bullshit

[@nicholashauser6607]

Nice speeds when it works. I've had it for 2 months and am going back to Cox. It has become completely unreliable, and a major disruption to my remote work: about a month ago there was maintenance on a tower I was connected to (they never let you know it's coming; you just find out when it dies/comes back up/dies/comes back up.... and have to call them. In addition, the engineering team does not have an estimated up time.). I get redirected to a new one. Good for a while. Just happened (i.e., maintenance) again. Redirected me to a new tower (presumably a more stable one, not undergoing maintenance) and I lost connectivity 3x in the last hour). I'm done. I'll take stability over speed any day.

Excellent setup and overview information. Thanks. I recently received the unit. I sometimes get 4 bars and the speed has been reliable.

Very good review on this. Now I have to subscribe. Keep up the great work!

[@cdnlong1]

Great video Triple M! You're lucky you get such great bandwidth. I have had this for a couple of months. I am in the suburbs of San Jose, CA (Campbell). It is good almost all the time, but only 30-50 MB/s. I am about 1/2 mile from a cell tower. Signal strength is 3 - 4 bars. I think I am getting only 4G. It was crappy Friday noon - evening, with 0 - 2 Mp/s. Customer support was responsive (611) but were not helpful in solving the problem. Good thing is the equipment is free, and there is no contract, so you can quit any time. By the way, when I had Comcast and it went down, I could use my T-Mobile phone as a hotspot backup. Now I have no backup. When the Nokia is bad, so is my phone. My boss suggested bringing back Comcast as a backup. (after I dropped out of a meeting yesterday due to T-Mobile issues) Right now on TM, I'm getting 35 Mbps download and 13 Mbps upload.

[@Triple_M]

Damn, sorry to hear that

[@matekochkoch]

Yesterday i watched a video of someone who added external antennas to this unit and doubled his bandwidth. It is possible without soldering and you need only some screwdrivers.

[@erikgonzalez2278]

wow that's rough, living in the Bay Area I couldn't think of why networks such as I had ATT and mobile would be lagging versus other areas of the country I had ATT when I left the Bay Area and they rocked with LTE at 100 mbps and 5ge at 200mbps more than my house on Comcast yeah I would have Comcast as a back up most providers have a basic internet tier like 25 mbps. I was born and raised in San Jose so I grew up with Comcast in my experience I moved to SoCal now we have spectrum so so so 100x better than Comcast. their minimum tier speed is 200mbps and even in my small town near fields I have 400 mbps/200 mbps on wifi.

[@lindag3587]

I should ask what app did you use for your speed test?

[@n1kkri]

There website states it's not allowed to be used other than in your home because they want to manage the activity on their towers. However I wondered if they some how linked it with a towers in your zip code or GPS location to prevent it from working on the road. This becomes the ultimate device for motor homes, RV, or just camping provided you can come up with 120vac. What is the ouput voltage of the transformer? There might be another way of supplying power to it instead of the stock power supply.

[@jaycahow4667]

I would think Starlink is more the ultimate device as it does not need any type of cell service at all. Currently though it has the same user location limitations and it only supposed to be used at its designated location.

[@JC-jt3dt]

nice job, i got one and it works as you say

[@thebugg333]

Seems like everyone has 3 bars max, even with my device. The only flaw is that you cannot manage the device so that you have an open NAT for gaming. I'd say T-Mobile is 80% there..my issues with cable did go away with using zoom and teams but we will see on the long term of people start using it by me.

In india they sell portable wifi data devices about thge size of a computer mouse. In addition to that device they give u a telephone number so a smart phone can be paired with the wifi device. In addition upto a dozen devices can connect to that vis wifi. The device sells for about $20 upfront cost and you have different data plans with a plan that offers 2 gb per day for a month at $5 (FIVE DOLLARS) per month. Th eplatform is called JIO and is so popular that people carry that in their pocket, and have a phone line all the time and when you come home your home devices will connect to it.

I had mine installed for 1 day. 33Mbps maximum, but when my family came for dinner, bringing 4 more devices, everything choked. I carried it to every room in the house…2-3 bars, but throughput at 1/3 the speed of Spectrum Cable that costs me $80/mo (after dropping phone). If I was the only device on the network I could get 4K streaming, but that’s just ridiculous. My son’s T-Mobile phone, in my house, got 125Mbps on 4g, and 92Mbps on 5G. Was excited to try…sad!

[@jaycahow4667]

First off realize that the best position for 5G is probably not the best position for WiFi if you are connecting that way. That is why they should not be in the same device. You can use a different WiFi router in a different place plugged into the 5G. Second the 5G router is not only sensitive to location but also to direction. It has two sets of 5G antennae located at each side and even just slightly turning it can really effect your 5G signal. Some people have hooked it up to fixed external antennae and gotten a much better signal but this requires disassembly. It would have been a better product with built in external antennae jacks.

[@MarioSays713]

Tmobile does have a fail safe on location. There is a gps inside device and and if it’s being used in a non approved area they will disconnect and terminate your internet service. I think it’s in their policy agreements. They do that to prevent having many people in a HINT tower. So it’s a good thing for customers just have to follow the “rules”.

[@john26262]

Some users are reporting that when they first set up their T-Mobile modem they were getting good speeds but after a few days or weeks suddenly their speed crashed down to almost nothing. It will be interesting to see if this happens to you or not. In my case, I tried out the service but I had to send it back because the speed was so slow it was virtually unusable. I think it depends a lot on your location so someone seeing your review should not necessarily assume that they will get the same speeds that you got.

[@keep.clam.shine.on.]

Happen to me but was after 3 months of using it. Speeds were still fast on my T-Mobile phone but speeds coming from the T-Mobile home internet were much much slower. I tried rebooting and even called T-Mobile and all they would say is that the Unlimited T-Mobile home internet is giving a much lower priority on the network then unlimited phone data. But after dealing with it for a week I called T-Mobile and told them I was out. Went back to Spectrum. Love the speeds I get on my phone but the home internet speeds were just not reliable enough for the money imo. But different people seem to have different experiences depending on where they are.

[@jaycahow4667]

@@keep.clam.shine.on. t works off unused signal flow on the tower. It is going to be bad when there is lots going on at your tower. It should be better early and late in the day when cell traffic is less. Might not be viable for many in congested areas. If they give it lower priority than phone then that makes it even more prone to congestion. Might make sense as a backup but I would prefer a guaranteed speed.

[@losbones]

Cryptographic keys enable LTE to provide many of the strong security features built into the system. There are many different keys used to protect different layers of LTE communication. All of these keys are derived from a secret pre-shared key referred to as ‘K’. This key resides in two places within the network: one is the USIM running on the UICC and the other is within the carrier’s HSS/AuC. The USIM manufacturer may also have access to K if it is responsible for burning the key into the USIM. Depending on how K is provisioned to the UICC it may be possible for a malicious actor to gain access to this secret key responsible for all of LTE’s cryptographic functions. If an actor gains access to K they have the potential to both impersonate a subscriber on the network and the ability to decrypt communication from the subscriber for whom K was provisioned.

[@cdlvj]

Three major problems with this unit. 1. If 2 or 1 bar, does not work at all. So you have to have great coverage. 2. Supports only 5 ghz band. Not dual band, so you have to have router to service older devices. 3. Why no jack for external antenna. Which may fix issue with 1.

Had this for 3 days and only got 15mps.. called t-mobile they blamed it on the towers.. i placed this all over my house and even outside... wanted it to work because i hate comcast but oh well

[@Triple_M]

Where are you located?

[@Triple_M]

Sorry to hear that..

[@jaycahow4667]

It is highly sensitive to cell tower location, cell tower traffic, router antennae direction, time of day. It is probably not viable for many people or those that need a stable connection at a guaranteed speed.

[@bryaniskoo]

Won't work with Hulus Set Home Location.

[@lindag3587]

As I watch your video, I realize that your phone app shows things mine does. Not. Mine shows my phone off line, which it obviously can't be to be accessing the device. And it shows my computer off line, which it can't be as I am watching your video. And my other laptop can't even see the T-Mobile Wi-Fi signal. It is very annoying. I appreciate your video though. Thank you.

Well, I am in the middle of a bad experience with T-Mobile home internet. I was told that the 5G router was out of stock when I noticed that I was experiencing a great deal of buffering occurring. When I tested the speed it was below 1 Mbps yes 1 Mbps. I called the T-Mobile home internet technical support phone number only to be told that the 5G routers would not be in stock till October. I received my router back in December of 2020 thinking, or trusting, I should say that I would receive a 5G router as I was told I would. So I've been a customer of T-Mobile for over six years now and I had no reason to mistrust. It turns out that what T-Mobile home internet had sent me for a router was just a 4G router. I didn't even bother to check because I had reason to trust but that most certainly has changed, my bad. Just wanted to share this with you. The recap I bought into a service thinking I was going to receive broadband 5G service and instead got a very very slow 1 Mbps router. Needless to say I am not happy.

[@jaycahow4667]

They supplied 4G routers while the 5G was not available. Since this service is both a 4G and 5G service with bundled 4G doing much of the work I question how much fast it will be with the 5G router. It depends very much on what tower you connect to and how much traffic that tower gets. Home Internet users get the lowest traffic priority.

[@gregpitman585]

What about using a VPN. Can you talk about your experience and setting you use so it will work?

[@Triple_M]

I will test that out and post it in the comments. Completely forgot about that

[@gregpitman585]

Thank you sir think it's important for us subscribers to be aware of the issues with VPNs on this network

[@Triple_M]

So, I tested with Nord and IPvanish and it worked. Also, I was able to use it to connect to my VPN from work.

[@gregpitman585]

Have you tried it on Android? The only way I can get it to work there is by using tcp.

[@JayTee713]

T-Mobile home internet depends on your tower traffic. My tower for TMobile is always congested so T-Mobile home internet didn't work for me

[@Triple_M]

Gotcha

[@vgarza1972]

Same here I live in the west Texas area they've updated all my towers said it'll get better but now the congestion is thier excuse but wait it'll get better SMH!!

[@jaycahow4667]

It works off unused signal flow on the tower. It is going to be bad when there is lots going on at your tower. It should be better early and late in the day when cell traffic is less. Might not be viable for many in congested areas.

[@Triple_M]

I can't say for sure because I haven't tested it, but I don't see why not. If all Ooma needs is an active network connection, then it should be fine.

So I’m guessing you can’t use it during a power outage unless you have power backup?

[@Triple_M]

Correct

[@ElevenAce]

There are some very small compact battery inverter things you can buy. Get one of those and then just plug up your devices when the power goes out. Depending on the size it will last a long time

[@mandaragat1771]

The t-mobile router has a battery back so incase in the future u guys had power outage u can still use you’re home internet for up to 6hrs.

[@elijagarcia1991]

The battery has built inside its for the reason of, when you try find a better place for your gateway to get a good internet coverage. So it doesnt mean that you will going to rely on your battery when theres a power outages.

I have T-Mobile internet. Had it for 3 months and my device stopped working. They then sent me another which didn’t even turned on. They said I won’t be able to get a new device until August! I won’t have internet until then 🤨

[@Triple_M]

Damn, that sux.

[@jaycahow4667]

Was your device overheating? It can easily over heat if you use the WiFi capabilities. You either need to add a fan to cool it down or shut off WiFi and connect a different WiFi router to it and use that instead.

[@elijagarcia1991]

Yes it has a cooling issue.. this gateway is need to be placed into no exposure from sunlight and even devices that is prone from heats like microwaves, I highly suggest that if theres no place to keep your modem away from heat you can buy a fan,, just like a fun using in the system unit the cooling fun.

[@jaycahow4667]

It is the WiFi that causes the heat. If you shut off WiFi and connect a different WiFi router to it and use that instead it does not overheat.

[@tukulitozakayamas2103]

i i still not sure about this gateway. 3 weeks so far, the fist week i was getting speeds between 100s 200s and 300s. now speeds are barely 100 at best. 3 bars for the past 3 days before only 2 bars. sometimes it gets really crazy slowwwwwww. i dont play games online but my niece was here the other day and she plays forenite and she was mad. not good for online gaming apparently .... i wish it was more stable. we dont have that many devices it should run better.

[@KillerRaptorr]

First put it by a open window. It requires Cell signal to convert into wifi network. Cell signal gets super weak in buildings. So putting it by a window will help it A LOT. Find a window in the direction of a t-mobile tower. Say if it's the eastern side of the house like in the kitchen. Put it there and wire a Ethernet cable from there to your main router box. It'll be funky, But this'll give the best ability. Also disable wifi on it and plug a ethernet to your existing router. The wifi on the unit will get the device hot and start to have speed performance drops due to heating. This should help your system better.

wow. On the the interwebs "T-Mobile Home internet®" was ALWAYS told me that it was NOT available at my home address. I'm so glad I called customer service and got it. Excellent speeds and I can't ask for a better price! A people saying that 4G isn't good enough, they need 5G. You can't tell the difference between the two if you didn't know that you were on 4G instead of 5G! That's like the difference from going 175 miles an hour on a motorcycle to 200 miles an hour on a motorcycle, at that speed it really doesn't make too much of a difference you're going to die if you crash either way!😵 😂
