Cancelling T-Mobile Home Internet Service
I'm a very happy T-Mobile Magenta Plus customer. While upgrading our iPhones the other day, I decided to add T-Mobile's Home Internet service. It looked like I'd get better speeds and save some mon...

Same sentiment here. I've been a happy T-Mobile mobile phone customer for a few years now. I used to have AT&T before T-Mobile. T-Mobile has been great (the phone service and the company in general), especially compared to AT&T. So when I heard about T-Mobile offering Home Internet service, I was eager to switch over. Unfortunately, after using the service for a few months, I have to say T-Mobile Home Internet is just not ready for prime time. I hate to go back to Spectrum, but T-Mobile is not a viable option right now. Here are my problems with T-Mobile Home Internet:
- The modem does not have a bridge mode option. Therefore, I can't fully utilize my router, which means no port forwarding, no dynamic DNS, no VPN on the whole network.... Many of my devices at home can't work correctly while on T-Mobile Home Internet.
- The internet speed is inconsistent. I get 4 bars at my location all the time, but even so, the internet speed fluctuates wildly. I noticed the worst was usually around 5pm-8pm. The download speed can dip down to 10Mbps or slower (see below speed test result). When the internet speed is terrible, videos become pixelated or even freeze while streaming. How about online gaming? Forget about it. I have more fun banging my head against my desk.
Too bad, I have high hopes for 5G. For now Spectrum is still the only option in my area…. sigh….
