Why does my home internet gateway list my location as Detroit when my location is 4 hours away in Ohio? It’s not ideal when searching online for “places near me.”

I get 20 streams from my DirecTV home location, but every time I have to restart my Gateway (24 times in the past 7 weeks) DirecTV thinks I have moved. I can reset my home location for DirecTV twice in a year, and after that I can only access two streams. I know this is not T-Mobile's fault, but streamers need to know this.
Ouch! Is this still the case? We have T-Mobile Home 5G Internet, and we're not happy with YouTube TV, because the expanded streaming with their 4K Plus option is not compatible with the T-Mobile IPv6 protocol. So we're thinking very seriously of switching to DirecTV Stream.
And now you're telling me that DirecTV Stream doesn't work properly with T-Mobile 5G Home Internet either! Are we going to have to dump T-Mobile and switch our Internet provider back to Spectrum to get a web provider that plays nice with these streaming services?????
