So I recently switched to T-Mobile Home internet since it advertises good speeds and no data caps. When I first set up the gateway, I was shocked. Speeds were blazing fast. I was consistently getting...

They also generally get 10-20 mbps on the AT&T network. The other closest tower is about 15+ miles away where as the one I drove to is about 3.75 miles away. I can see the tower i went to from the 2nd story of my house. I've considered getting an external antenna, but if having full signal still only gets me 2.8mbps an antenna isn't going to do much is it? My little Texas town refuses to move technology past 1999 so I'd love TMHI to work. I was so happy my first month with T-Mobile, but since then have been so irritated... I'll give them a call tomorrow and see what they say.
They're throttling your account. I've unfortunately been with them for 25yrs, and I get 20mbs download no matter where I am (I live in a city that's completely covered deep red 5g). When I call it will go back to semi normal speed, but within an hour it's back to 3g speed. They're ripping a certain percentage of senior citizens customers bandwidth off thinking they're stupid. At least that the only thing makes any since.n. They're an evil evil corporation but said to much. Already.
