Travelling with my TMobile Home Internet device?
I travel a lot in the USA. Next Month I will be living in a private home in another state. This residence does not have internet service. o, I'm wondering if I can bring my T-Mobile Home Internet device with me, and will it function in a location different from my regular reesidence?

There are no guarantees on if and how well it will work at an address other than the one that the device was approved for.

I just signed up for Home Internet. I have two homes and an RV, so I will be traveling. The salesperson seemed to say I could take the device with me, and if there is signal, I can use it. There seemed to be no assurance that it will work, but I will try it and see.

Yes absolutely you can currently. All you have to do is plug it in. Not a ton of towers for this service so doesn't work anywhere. I am an Independent Contractor and we all use it for this exact purpose because tower's in remote areas on missions are drowned out by to many people with not enough towers. This works if there is a tower near by, there is nothing that says you cannot do this and is even currently advertised as internet at home or on the go. When I am doing Ops on a mission this allows me to do everything I need on all my devices when I am just doing over watch. It is a fantastic tech and I hope in further years they manage to make it even better just like they did when they converted all of sprints CDMA towers to GSM 5G and is now the best provider in the US currently. Hopefully they continue to expand the Home Internet towers and make it just as good as there mobile or the tesla satellite when or if they get permission to use them, this will make your speeds on the device even in remote areas at around 1 Gigs a second to 5 gigs a second with excellent signal but even with poor signal I get 40 mbs which is better then 1 mbs I typically get with Hotspot because of low signal strength since this modem has a much more powerful antenna. Also side note if you fly with it check it in under the plane because that is a big no no on carry on since this can jam signals from the plane.
Do you have to call or go online to change the addrees you’re at?

The day they stop the TMobile Home Internet from working at other than my home location will be the day I discontinue the service. It's month-to-month anyway, so no huge loss. Note to TMobile: YES I understand it may not work everywhere.

I really hope they do not add a location lock, because TMobile home internet is amazing. We also take at least 8 RV trips a year and this and it would be great to have on those trips.
We live in the suburbs. Our house is pretty big and has always required multiple router points, now a mesh, and never came close to the advertised bandwidth. We now get over 6x the bandwidth wirelessly than we got even directly wired to the modem.
