T-Mobile Home Internet Review
I have been using T-Mobile Home Internet for a couple of months now. I recently upgraded to the 5G Gateway, which has made my WiFi much better Vs. the LTE Gateway which sucked and had a lot of restri...
I started using my T-Mobile 5G home base internet on 08/23/2021. I have only encountered two issues. One was error message that the internal battery was not charging, and the second was receiving two (short code) five-digit SPAM SMS each day. T-Mobile blocked the SPAM SMS. The battery in the Nokia OEM silver device was never set up as a power backup. I just unplug the battery and that resolve the error issue. Getting 60 SMS text message a month would have cause problems.
My 5G home base works well. Good download and upload speed. 😀
As of April 25, 2024, T-Mobile is reportedly cracking down on using its 5G home internet on the go by verifying addresses. The company says this is necessary to ensure its network doesn't get overloaded, especially in areas that don't have the capacity to support Home Internet. T-Mobile will lock the gateway to the address on file using GPS on the router. To use the service at a different location, users will need to sign up for an away plan.
I wanted to inform users that several media outlets like CNET and PHONE ARENA price increases on some of its plans. GOOGLE: "t-mobile raising prices" to learn more.
