5G Home Internet vs. phone data speeds
So I'm a Magenta Max customer and mostly happy with my service. We live in a town where the 5G can be very strong depending on time of day/which part of town you're in. So I started considering ...
That is exactly why I strongly recommend anyone who is interested to do the trial run and not dive in after termination of the current service. It could be T-MOBILE is still working on the towers in the area. They tend to start loading before they are done I think. Some instances it seems as if users come on and speeds are great only to go south after a month or two.
With a VPN keep in mind your packets will be encapsulated in the tunnel. You might need to lower the MTU from 1500 bytes to I think 1440-1460 bytes. Large max size packets are where the problem can be encountered.
You might check downdetector.com to see if there are reports of outages for T-MOBILE in your area.
