Hard to say...3 bars may be fine. You should download the TM Internet app (not to be confused with regular TM app) and check the signal quality statistics in there. You can move the gateway around your house (putting it in windows) to find a spot that maximizes signal quality. If this spot turns out to be too far from your TV for a good WiFi signal, you may need to upgrade to a mesh network for better WiFi coverage. You should also download a SpeedTest app and check your speeds. Speeds will vary at different times of the day (the nature of cellular service), but "in general" most folks are happy with downloads exceeding 40 mbps. TM Internet is capable of over 500 mbps under good conditions, but the vast majority of folks do not need that kind of speed.
That's very helpful. I used the app to find the best connection. I will look into the SpeedTest app. Any suggestions? What's a mesh network? Would I use that along with the Tmobile gateway?
